Address second round of Jesper Schulz-Wedde's review on PR #156

- dimension-management-wiring.md/.good.al: split into the two distinct
  models the article was conflating - master data (Default Dimension
  records via ValidateDimValueCode/SaveDefaultDim) vs. transactional/
  document data (a single Dimension Set ID assembled via AddDimSource +
  GetDefaultDimID, verified against BCApps' ExchRateAdjmtProcess.Codeunit.al).
  Added a compiling document-table example alongside the existing master
  table one.
- Deleted api-page-flowfields-must-be-calcfields (.md/.good.al/.bad.al):
  Microsoft's own FlowFields documentation states a FlowField used as a
  control's direct source expression is automatically calculated on any
  page - no API-page exception is documented, and none could be
  reproduced.
- prefer-email-module.bad.al/.md: Codeunit Mail has no Send/GetErrorDesc
  members; fixed to the real current 7-argument CreateMessage signature,
  and corrected the claim that the legacy path "still runs" - its base
  implementation no longer sends anything, only raises integration events.
- check-post-line-batch-pattern.md/.good.al: reframed from a universal
  invariant to the standard shape, naming the real Gen./Item/CA/Res./Job/
  Insurance/Mfg. Item/FA Jnl.-Check Line/-Post Line/-Post Batch codeunits
  it's based on. Added the missing Check Line companion codeunit so the
  good fixture is internally complete.
- test-data-must-be-random-and-complete.good.al: removed leftover
  "collision-free" wording contradicting the already-corrected article text.
- fixed-choice-set-must-use-enum-not-integer.md: removed the reintroduced
  state-count heuristic ("the line is the state count"), aligned with
  binary-choice-must-be-boolean.md's semantics-based distinction.
- namespace-must-be-verified-from-source.md: removed the false claim that
  the compiler and AL Language Server use different namespace-resolution
  rules.
- intrinsic-al-functions-must-use-modern-casing.md: removed the unverified
  claim that PascalCase is the VS Code formatter's default output.

Worklist completeness: added cues for the 8 rules in data-modeling,
testing, performance, and web-services that had none (Jesper's explicit
ask), plus the same gap in all 7 style rules from this PR (not explicitly
named this round, but the identical systemic issue) - 15 cues total across
al-data-modeling-review.md, al-testing-review.md, al-performance-review.md,
al-web-services-review.md, and al-style-review.md.

- The changed AL object names and types — especially pages declared with `PageType = API`, API page `part` controls, queries declared with `QueryType = API`, and procedures that expose bound actions.
- The changed properties and triggers, weighted toward API page metadata (`APIPublisher`, `APIGroup`, `APIVersion`, `EntityName`, `EntitySetName`, `ODataKeyFields`, `SourceTable`, `SourceTableTemporary`), navigation metadata (`SubPageLink`, `Multiplicity`, and visible singleton or collection semantics), CRUD guards (`InsertAllowed`, `ModifyAllowed`, `DeleteAllowed`, `Editable`), the `OnOpenPage` trigger, and `OnValidate` triggers on exposed fields.
- Webhook subscriber handlers and subscription lifecycle code, especially code that creates or renews subscriptions, handles `validationToken`, schedules from `expirationDateTime`, or targets resources whose eligibility is visible in the diff.
- An API page (`PageType = API`) with `InsertAllowed = true` lists a field in `ODataKeyFields` and that same field control sets `Editable = false` — `api-page-key-fields-must-be-editable-on-insert.md`. A system-generated key such as `SystemId` marked read-only is not this anti-pattern.
- An API page exposes a field via `Rec` directly, and that field is a stored value computed from other fields inside an `OnValidate` trigger rather than a FlowField recalculated in `OnAfterGetRecord` — `stored-derived-fields-must-not-be-exposed-directly.md`. Exposing a genuine FlowField, or a value already recalculated in `OnAfterGetRecord`, is not this anti-pattern.
- Tokens extracted from the diff that relate to API surface and behaviour (`PageType`, `QueryType`, `API`, `api-page`, `page-part`, `APIPublisher`, `APIGroup`, `APIVersion`, `EntityName`, `EntitySetName`, `ODataKeyFields`, `SystemId`, `SubPageLink`, `subpagelink`, `Multiplicity`, `multiplicity`, `Many`, `ZeroOrOne`, `SourceTableTemporary`, `Job Queue Entry`, `webhook`, `webhookSupportedResources`, `webhook-supported-resources`, `subscriptions`, `notificationUrl`, `validationToken`, `validationtoken`, `expirationDateTime`, `expirationdatetime`, `ServiceEnabled`, `WebServiceActionContext`, `SetActionResponse`, `ReadIsolation`, `IsolationLevel`, `ReadCommitted`, `InsertAllowed`, `ModifyAllowed`, `DeleteAllowed`, `Editable`, `SourceTable`).
A file enters the candidate worklist when its `keywords` intersect the extracted tokens or its topic (derived from the index entry's `path`, `title`, and `description`) matches a changed object type. Read an article's full file — its `## Best Practice` / `## Anti Pattern` bodies — only after it makes the worklist; candidate selection uses the index alone.
