refactor(antigravity): 🔨 inline JSON schema references before sanitization

Introduced `_inline_schema_refs()` function to resolve local $ref definitions in JSON schemas before applying Claude-specific sanitization. This ensures that schema references are properly expanded and circular references are handled gracefully.

- Added new helper function to recursively resolve $ref pointers from $defs and definitions
- Circular reference detection prevents infinite loops by tracking seen references
- Applied inlining step before `_clean_claude_schema()` in both tool transformation flows
- Updated docstring to reflect the new two-step sanitization process (inline, then clean)
- Removed extraneous `$schema` pop that was no longer needed

This change improves schema compatibility with Antigravity/Gemini's Proto-based API by ensuring all references are resolved before unsupported JSON Schema keywords are stripped.
