fix: floor ovos-spec-tools at the release that ships intent_topics

[JarbasAl]

🤖 Auto-generated by Claude Fable 5 (claude-fable-5) via Claude Code — NOT human-reviewed. Verify before acting.

ovos_utils.fakebus imports ovos_spec_tools.intent_topics, but the dependency floor (ovos-spec-tools>=0.16.1a2) predates that module: any environment whose resolver lands on an old-but-floor-satisfying spec-tools (observed via a downstream's stale <1.0.0 cap resolving spec-tools 0.18.0a1) gets an unimportable ovos-utils, and only a real install catches it. The floor moves to >=1.6.0a2, the first release whose intent_topics carries the post-refactor shape the import needs — verified by installing exactly the floor version and importing canonical_intent_topic.
