Find Matter By Phone (lawmatics_find-matter-by-phone)
Fuzzy-find a single matter (legal case) in Lawmatics by the client's phone number; use get-matter for full details. Returns `{ match: <entity> }` on a hit and `{ match: null }` when no record matches. `match: null` is a normal empty result, not an error — do not retry.
