- Remove unnecessary `.passthrough()` from ToolChoiceSchema
- Change CreateMessageResultSchema.role from z.literal("assistant") to
  z.enum(["user", "assistant"]) to match spec's SamplingMessage.role
- Update spec type count from 123 to 127 (4 new sampling tool types)
- Fix test accessing .type on content union (could be array)
- Add test for CreateMessageResult with array content
- Remove test expecting user role to fail (spec allows both roles)

Note: 7 type compatibility errors remain due to upstream spec issue
where ToolUseContent.input and ToolResultContent.structuredContent use
`object` type instead of `{ [key: string]: unknown }`.
