Detailed Description

[FILES] section handler — secondary file references.

Parses the legacy SWMM5 [FILES] section into SimulationContext::files. Row format:

[FILES]
SAVE/USE   FileType   "path"   [date  time]

     Where FileType ∈ {RAINFALL, RUNOFF, RDII, INFLOWS, OUTFLOWS,
     HOTSTART}.  The optional date/time tokens apply only to
     `SAVE HOTSTART` and are stored on the `hotstart_save_datetime`
     field as a fractional-day SWMM date.

     Multi-row `SAVE HOTSTART` (legacy supported up to 10) is not
     yet honoured: each new SAVE row overwrites the previous slot.
     Lift to a vector when a real workflow needs it.
