refactor: enforce ktx naming and AGENTS.md compliance sweep (#289)

Align the tree with AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md conventions:

- Rewrite user-facing strings, docs, and tests to lowercase `ktx`
  (no bare uppercase `KTX` tokens remain outside literal identifiers).
- Drop the legacy `historicSql` migration path and its now-unused
  helpers, per the no-backward-compat rule.
- Remove `as unknown as` / `any` casts: narrow `BaseTool` generics to
  `z.ZodObject`, add a typed `createLookerClient`, and delete the dead
  `getParametersSchema`/`toAnthropicFormat` pre-AI-SDK helpers.
- Use `InvalidArgumentError` for Commander parse failures.
- Finish the adapter→connector prose conversion in the `ktx.yaml` docs
  while keeping the literal `adapters` config key.

-**Join discovery:** When your card's SQL references warehouse tables (e.g. in `FROM` or `JOIN` clauses), call `sl_discover({ query: '<table>' })` before writing. The matching manifest entry's `name` is the value you use in `joins: [- to: <name>]` only when the card output exposes a local key that matches the target source grain (for example `account_id = mart_account_segments.account_id`). Do not declare a KTX join just because the card SQL joins that table internally. If the output only exposes display fields such as `account_name`, keep the SQL source self-contained or project the key before adding the join. Use `many_to_one` for FK-to-dimension joins, `one_to_many` for the reverse.

 **Hard rule on join columns (prevents broken joins):** For every join you declare, the local column on the left of `on:` MUST be (a) present in your source's projected output and (b) a key/ID column, never a display value. If the natural FK isn't in your SELECT, add it to SELECT before declaring the join. Joining `account_name = mart_account_segments.account_id` is always wrong - names are not identifiers and the equality produces zero matches. The validator rejects this with a "display value to identifier" error; the tool will refuse to save it. Add `account_id` to your SELECT and join on `account_id = mart_account_segments.account_id`, or omit the join entirely.
