feat: automatic abacus instruction generator for user-created tutorial steps

Built comprehensive system that automatically generates correct abacus instructions
for any start→target value pair:

🤖 Core Features:
- Automatic bead highlighting calculation
- Five complement detection (e.g. 3+4 = 5-1)
- Ten complement detection (e.g. 7+4 = 10-6)
- Multi-step instruction generation
- Place-value aware operations
- Comprehensive error message generation

📚 Generated Content:
- Precise bead highlighting (heaven/earth, positions)
- Step-by-step instructions
- Educational tooltips with explanations
- Context-aware error messages
- Action type classification (add/remove/multi-step)

🧪 Testing & Validation:
- Comprehensive test suite with 23 test cases
- Input validation and error detection
- Real-world tutorial example verification
- Demo UI at /auto-instruction-demo

This enables dynamic tutorial creation where users input any math operation
and get pedagogically correct, soroban-authentic instructions automatically.
