/**
 * PluginToolDispatcher — orchestrates plugin tool discovery, lifecycle
 * integration, and execution routing for the agent service.
 *
 * This service sits between the agent service and the lower-level
 * `PluginToolRegistry` + `PluginWorkerManager`, providing a clean API that:
 *
 * - Discovers tools from loaded plugin manifests and registers them
 *   in the tool registry.
 * - Hooks into `PluginLifecycleManager` events to automatically register
 *   and unregister tools when plugins are enabled or disabled.
 * - Exposes the tool list in an agent-friendly format (with namespaced
 *   names, descriptions, parameter schemas).
 * - Routes `executeTool` calls to the correct plugin worker and returns
 *   structured results.
 * - Validates tool parameters against declared schemas before dispatch.
 *
 * The dispatcher is created once at server startup and shared across
 * the application.
 *
 * @see PLUGIN_SPEC.md §11 — Agent Tools
 * @see PLUGIN_SPEC.md §13.10 — `executeTool`
