feat: add structured output support via --json-schema argument (#687)

* feat: add structured output support

Add support for Agent SDK structured outputs.

New input: json_schema
Output: structured_output (JSON string)
Access: fromJSON(steps.id.outputs.structured_output).field

Docs: https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/agent-sdk/structured-outputs

* rm unused

* refactor: simplify structured outputs to use claude_args

Remove json_schema input in favor of passing --json-schema flag directly
in claude_args. This simplifies the interface by treating structured outputs
like other CLI flags (--model, --max-turns, etc.) instead of as a special
input that gets injected.

Users now specify: claude_args: '--json-schema {...}'
Instead of separate: json_schema: {...}

* chore: remove unused json-schema util and revert version

- Remove src/utils/json-schema.ts (no longer used after refactor)
- Revert Claude Code version from 2.0.45 back to 2.0.42
