Proposed flow change for Wire Sequence

[dopeghoti]

I would suggest a possibly simpler flow for the user experience for the Wire Sequence module.

Rather than have the defuser have to report more details (e. g. 'Black Bravo Charlie'), I would suggest only requiring the defuser to report the wire color, and the expert engine list wires to be cut. (e. g. Defuser: "Red" -> Bot: "Cut Alpha or Charlie").

This has the added benefit of not having to deal with the Speech-To-Text engine's apparent difficulties with 'Alpha' / 'Alfa'.

The only worry with this method is the defuser must wait for a response after each wire, potentially slowing him down 3x. By giving all wires and simply responding with which to cut, we reduce the amount of information relayed back to the defuser.

The same speed could be accomplished with the defuser reporting colors by
having the them report the state in triplets and get answers also in
triplets. For example, "Red, black, blue" -> "cut bravo, cut beta or
Charlie, cut alpha".
