Implement hover type inference and matching for mdtest

- Add find_covering_node() to locate AST nodes at specific positions
- Add infer_type_at_position() to get type information using ty_python_semantic
- Add generate_hover_outputs() to scan for hover assertions and generate results
- Integrate hover outputs into check flow in run_test()
- Implement hover matching logic in matcher.rs to compare types
- Avoid adding ty_ide dependency; instead use ty_python_semantic directly

The implementation extracts hover assertions from comments, computes the target
position from the down arrow location, infers the type at that position using
the AST and SemanticModel, and matches it against the expected type in the
assertion.

Hover assertions now work end-to-end in mdtest files!
