Added "summarize_facilities" (11 tools before, 12 now)
Aggregate numeric CMS ProviderInfo fields (n, mean, min, max; optional median) across certified SNFs. Prefer this over paging search_facilities for national or grouped stats. Call list_distinct_values for ownership catalogs; call list_file_dates for filedate. Facility-equal means — not bed-weighted. Missing values excluded per metric. Not causal. Not a substitute for get_facility on a named home. Rate limit 60 requests/minute.
