tegwick 2d1282a61e feat(infospace): flat canonical entity set with cross-chapter deduplication
Restructure entity storage from per-chapter subdirectories to a flat
canonical set in output/entities/. Each entity exists as a single file;
duplicates across chapters are detected by slug collision and skipped
(first occurrence wins). Chapter views use {{ include }} transclusion
to reference shared entity files.

Add @{existing_entities} macro to extract-entities template so the LLM
knows which entities already exist and focuses on genuinely new ones.
Refactor _call_llm() from _execute_llm() for callers that handle their
own file I/O. 41 unique entities from 4 chapters (2 duplicates removed).

# Agriculture
## Definition
The sector of production concerned with the cultivation of land and the raising
of crops and livestock. Smith argues that agriculture does not admit of as many
subdivisions of labour as manufactures, because seasonal rhythms prevent workers
from specialising year-round in a single task. As a result, agricultural
productivity improves less dramatically with the division of labour than
manufacturing productivity.
## Source Chapter
Book I, Chapter 1: "Of the Division of Labour"
## Context
Agriculture is introduced as a counterpoint to manufactures. Smith notes that
the ploughman, harrower, sower, and reaper are often the same person, and that
this is why even rich countries do not surpass poor countries in agricultural
output as dramatically as in manufacturing output.
## Economic Domain
Production
## Smith's Original Wording
"The nature of agriculture, indeed, does not admit of so many subdivisions of
labour, nor of so complete a separation of one business from another, as
manufactures."
