refactor(json): Consolidate JSON utilities and type definitions

Modified files:
- client/src/components/DynamicJsonForm.tsx
- client/src/components/JsonView.tsx
- client/src/components/ToolsTab.tsx
- client/src/components/__tests__/DynamicJsonForm.test.tsx
- client/src/utils/__tests__/jsonPathUtils.test.ts → client/src/utils/__tests__/jsonUtils.test.ts
- client/src/utils/__tests__/schemaUtils.test.ts
- client/src/utils/jsonPathUtils.ts → client/src/utils/jsonUtils.ts
- client/src/utils/schemaUtils.ts

Descriptions:
- Move JSON type definitions from DynamicJsonForm to centralized jsonUtils
- Consolidate utility functions (getDataType, tryParseJson) into jsonUtils
- Rename jsonPathUtils to jsonUtils for better semantic clarity
- Add comprehensive test coverage for new utility functions
- Update imports across all affected components
- Improve type references consistency throughout the codebase
