Problem

Running `:CP codeforces 1234` when `codeforces` is not listed in `enabled_platforms` (or the platform key is absent from `config.platforms`) silently does nothing or produces a confusing internal error. There is no user-facing warning.

Solution

Before initiating a fetch in `setup.setup_contest`, check that the platform is present and enabled in the config. If not, emit a clear `vim.log.levels.ERROR` notification: e.g. `"Platform 'X' is not enabled. Add it to platforms in your cp.nvim config."`
