fix: resolve all 27 golangci-lint issues with comprehensive error handling

🔧 Code Quality Improvements:
- Complete errcheck compliance (24 issues → 0)
- staticcheck optimizations (2 issues → 0)
- Unused code cleanup (1 issue → 0)
- Production-ready error handling across codebase

📦 Production Code Fixes (Priority 1):
- resp.Body.Close(): Proper defer functions with error logging
- cmd.MarkFlagRequired(): Panic on setup-critical flag errors
- viper.BindPFlag/BindEnv(): Panic on configuration binding failures
- file.Close(): Warning logs for file handling errors
- fmt.Scanln/cmd.Usage(): Graceful error handling in CLI

🧪 Test Code Fixes (Priority 2):
- w.Write(): Error checking in all HTTP mock servers
- json.NewEncoder().Encode(): Proper error handling in test helpers
- Robust test infrastructure without silent failures

⚡ Performance & Readability (staticcheck):
- if-else chains → tagged switch statements in planner.go
- Empty branch elimination with meaningful error logging
- Import cleanup after unused function removal

🗂️ Code Organization:
- Removed unused createStreamingJSONServer helper function
- Clean imports without unused dependencies
- Consistent error handling patterns across adapters

✅ Quality Assurance:
- make lint: 27 issues → 0 issues
- All tests passing with robust error handling
- Production-ready error management and logging
- Enhanced code maintainability and debugging

🎯 Impact:
- Eliminates resource leaks from unclosed HTTP bodies
- Prevents silent failures in CLI setup and configuration
- Improves debugging with comprehensive error logging
- Enhances test reliability and error visibility
