Users may pass a Codeforces contest in non-canonical forms — a full URL, a round name, or a gym ID. The contest ID should be normalized to just the numeric form (e.g. `1933`) before it is stored or used.

Apply normalization in `parse_command` or `setup_contest` before any cache lookup or scraper call. Common cases to handle:

`https://codeforces.com/contest/1933` → `1933`
`https://codeforces.com/contest/1933/problem/A` → `1933`
