docs: reflect normalization fixes, detector cleanup and CLI overrides

- README: remove stale detector_response.py tree entry and the
  detector-models highlight (module removed); document per-branch
  measured transition endpoints from paceENSDF and JSON-flow CLI
  override semantics
- TODO: drop the DEFAULT_JSON_SCHEMA detector-keys clause (removed)
- data/custom_input_example.json: strip dead detector_* keys

 For a complete list of implemented and planned features, see [TODO.md](TODO.md). Key highlights:
 
 - **Physics corrections**: phase space, Fermi function, finite size, screening, exchange, radiative (with delta_cut resummation)
-- **Detector response**: Gaussian, Gaussian+tail, Tikhonov models with tabulated support
+- **Detector response**: not implemented — `SpectrumModel` keeps a duck-typed optional convolution hook; the analytical models were removed (restore-or-delete decision tracked in TODO.md)
 - **Multi-branch decay**: intensity-weighted sum of branch spectra, per-branch calculators with branch-specific endpoint, transition type (from ENSDF), and `--intensity-cutoff` CLI filter
 - **Analysis tools**: χ² fitter (SpectrumFitter + CurveFitter), C(W) extraction pipeline, Kurie plot analysis, g_V/g_A extraction
 - **Experimental data**: ExpSpectrum container, energy calibration, peak fitting, dead-time/pile-up correction
-- **CLI**: `bs_pnpi --nuclide Tc99` — full paceENSDF integration (auto-lookup of Z, A, Q-value, transition type, half-life, branches, forbiddenness from ENSDF)
+- **CLI**: `bs_pnpi --nuclide Tc99` — full paceENSDF integration (auto-lookup of Z, A, Q-value, transition type, half-life, branches, forbiddenness from ENSDF); for JSON input the file's values are used and CLI flags (`--e-step`, `--neutrino-mass`, `--intensity-cutoff`, `--csv-separator`, `--normalize-to-one`) override them only when explicitly given
-- **paceENSDF integration**: `get_decay_info_from_paceENSDF()`, `create_config_from_source("paceENSDF", nuclide="Tc99")`, `_parse_nuclide_symbol()` for Z=1..98, FORBIDDENNESS_MAP, `--nuclide` CLI flag
+- **paceENSDF integration**: `get_decay_info_from_paceENSDF()`, `create_config_from_source("paceENSDF", nuclide="Tc99")`, `_parse_nuclide_symbol()` for Z=1..98, FORBIDDENNESS_MAP, `--nuclide` CLI flag; per-branch endpoints are the measured transition endpoint energies from ENSDF (max endpoint across branches defines the spectrum endpoint)
