Runtime accessor for Cartouche's API manifest — returns the same structure
that mix descripex.manifest (aliased as mix manifest) writes to JSON.
HTTP endpoints, MCP servers, and other agent-economy consumers can call
Cartouche.Manifest.build/0 to retrieve the live manifest without depending
on an out-of-band JSON artifact. The static api_manifest.json is the same
shape, regenerated from source on demand and not checked into git.
See descripex for the manifest schema and
the broader self-describing-library pattern.

Summary
Functions
@spec build() :: map()
Build the live API manifest for every registered Cartouche module.
Mirrors the JSON shape produced by mix manifest (aliased to
mix descripex.manifest --pretty --output api_manifest.json); use this
variant when serving the manifest from a running Erlang VM (HTTP endpoint,
MCP server, A2A agent) rather than from a static build-time artifact.
