fix(tests): update cross-layer tests for frame_start bit and stream-gated mux

- TB byte 9 check: expect 0x81 (frame_start=1 after reset + cfar=1)
- contract_parser: handle ternary expressions in data_pkt_byte mux
  (stream_doppler_en ? doppler_real_cap : 8'd0 pattern)
- contract_parser: handle intermediate variable pattern for detection
  field (det_byte = raw[9]; detection = det_byte & 0x01)
