Laguna Beach plugin and new MCP requirements tools

The public Laguna Beach plugin is now generated from CrossBeam's current city rules, with the City's checklists, plan-set kinds and fee math, and is checked for drift. The MCP server adds tools to fetch a permit-drawings skill and a city's review requirements, and drawings can be handed to a city plugin to fill forms.

Laguna site plan scores north arrow and legend separately

Laguna Beach's Planning screener now checks the site plan's north arrow and its legend as two items, so a plan that shows north but lacks a legend no longer fails the north arrow too. Both still mark the same row on the City form.
