Fix digital voice decoder producing no output due to wrong dsd-fme flags

The _DSD_FME_PROTOCOL_FLAGS dictionary had every protocol flag wrong,
causing dsd-fme (the preferred binary) to receive invalid or mismatched
-f flags. Also fix orphaned process leak on startup failure and add
centralized input validation for frequency/gain/device.
