Feature gap: no virtual current meter simulation (no --simulate-current-meter equivalent) #50

Description

AI Generated issue-ticket

Summary

bbl_parser has no equivalent of blackbox-tools' --simulate-current-meter flag
(nor its --sim-current-meter-scale / --sim-current-meter-offset overrides).
That feature estimates a virtual current draw from throttle data when the log
has no real current sensor reading.

Confirmed via grep of src/ for current.*meter / simulate.*current — zero
matches on current master.

Context

Found while doing a broader CLI-flag parity sweep against
betaflight/blackbox-tools' blackbox_decode.c (prompted by the investigation
in #49). GOALS.md already lists "Current meter simulation: Energy integration
improvements — not started" under REMAINING WORK, so this formalizes that item
as a tracked issue.

Open question

Is this in scope for bbl_parser? Low priority — no known personal use case,
filing for tracking only, not a commitment to implement.
