marcus 4c60b5b5fa feat(recipes): add recipe categories support (v0.8.0)
- New tool: get_recipe_categories() lists available recipe category IDs
- Enhanced create_recipe and update_recipe with optional category_ids parameter
- Extended get_recipe and get_recipes to include category_ids in response
- Updated parse_recipe_full() to extract recipeCategoryIdList from API response
- Extended build_create_params() and build_update_params() to handle category_ids

Recipe categories are managed via recipe.recipeCategoryIdList in mprecipeput API.
Categories are represented as a list of category IDs (e.g. ["category/23431854_2"]).
No direct API endpoint exists for listing all categories; they are discovered from
existing recipes or must be known in advance.

Version: 0.7.5 → 0.8.0

"""Recipe helper functions for the Family Wall recipe box.
Verified endpoints (2026-04-16 via FW_DEBUG=1):
- Create: POST mprecipeput — params use 'recipe.' prefix (recipe.name, etc.)
- Update: POST mprecipeput with recipe.metaId — same prefix convention
- Read all: POST metasync with id='recipe' — response at a00.r.r.updatedCreated[]
- Delete: POST metadelete with id=<recipe_metaId>
Newline normalisation (bug fix v0.6.1):
LLM tool calls may pass literal backslash-n ('\\n', two chars) instead of a
real newline character. _normalize_newlines() converts them before sending
to the API so the server splits ingredients/instructions correctly.

only, so we normalise before sending.
