Dialogue Input Service

Description

Wraps Unity's Input System to provide dialogue-specific input handling. Loads the Dialogue action map from an InputActionAsset, caches actions by name, and provides methods to check input state and resolve per-device display labels.

Mouse interaction with options does not go through the action map. The option views call RaiseOptionClicked and RaiseOptionHovered, which fire the corresponding events. See Input System.
