Description

## Summary
Proposes integrating a fine-tuned DeBERTa-base model as the
LocalLLMClient fallback implementation for EDIS signal extraction.

## Why DeBERTa over DistilBERT
DeBERTa-base significantly outperforms DistilBERT on multi-label
fallacy classification due to its disentangled attention mechanism
which handles nuanced reasoning language better.

## Model Details
- Base model: microsoft/deberta-base
- Training data: 9,400 debate-style examples
- Fallacy classes: 8
- Validation F1-macro: 1.0
- Hard OOD test: 13/15
- Model: https://huggingface.co/RowdyI7er/DebateLLM

## Integration
The model implements the LocalLLMClient interface described
in the EDIS architecture — providing a zero-API-cost fallback
for fallacy detection without any changes to the existing
debate flow or Elo pipeline.
