Summary

• Adds a new procedures table built from the FAA CIFP (FAACIFP18, ARINC 424-18). It expands SID/STAR/approach records into flyable transition sequences, so an approach with several IAFs becomes one sequence per starting point.
• New root-level procedures.py (stdlib only) produces procedures.csv with columns: airport, procedure, initial_fix, sequence, fix, altitude.
• Procedure names come from the d-TPP metafile: SIDs/STARs link via faanfd18; approaches are named by decoding/matching the CIFP identifier to the chart name (~100% match on the current cycle). Falls back to a synthesized name when the metafile is unavailable.

Details

• common.make_data() now calls procedures.parse_procedures() right after cifp.parse_cifp(), so the CSV is regenerated for both the legacy and x database builds.
• data.py does a best-effort download of the d-TPP metafile for the current cycle; wrapped in try/except so a not-yet-published metafile can't break the build.
• legacy/importother.sql and x/importother.sql create and import the procedures table (same pattern as cifp_sid_star_app).
• Field values are comma-stripped before writing, since the pipeline's .separator "," / .import does not handle quoted fields.

Test plan

• Ran procedures.py on the live cycle: 166,576 rows generated.
• Imported procedures.csv into SQLite via the exact pipeline mechanism (.separator "," + .import): 166,576 rows, 0 column-alignment errors.
• Verified KBVY RNAV (GPS) RWY 09 sequences match the expected output.
• Verified graceful fallback to synthesized names when the metafile is absent.
• py_compile passes for procedures.py, common.py, data.py.
