 * Finds the intent with the highest confidence score from a recognizer result.

 * @param result - The recognizer result containing intents and their scores
 * @returns An object containing the top-scoring intent name and its confidence score
 * @throws {Error} Throws an error if the result is empty or doesn't contain intents
 *
 * @remarks
 * This function iterates through all intents in the recognizer result and returns
 * the intent name and score for the intent with the highest confidence score.
 * If multiple intents have the same highest score, the last one encountered is returned.
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * const result: RecognizerResult = {
 *   text: "Book a flight to Seattle",
 *   intents: {
 *     "BookFlight": { score: 0.95 },
 *     "Cancel": { score: 0.02 },
 *     "Help": { score: 0.03 }
 *   }
 * };
 *
 * const topIntent = getTopScoringIntent(result);
 * // Returns: { intent: "BookFlight", score: 0.95 }
 * ```
