feat: add dynamic registry-driven agent tool runtime

- Added AgentToolCaller with LLM-driven tool planning from plugin registry metadata\n- Added ToolExecutor with runtime namespace dispatch and non-hardcoded execution\n- Expanded plugin registry from 71 to 82 tools (parser/data/analysis/extraction/validation additions)\n- Integrated runtime tool decisions and tool observations into agentic scrape flow\n- Verified selected tools execute and vary by prompt for different scraping tasks\n\nCo-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
