Parameter-less tools in rmcp generated inputSchema: {} (empty dict
with no type field), which the Hermes MCP client rejects — one bad
tool fails the entire tools/list response.
Fix: added NoParams struct (empty, derives JsonSchema) and changed
get_goals to accept Parameters<NoParams>. schemars generates
{"type": "object", ...} for empty structs, which is valid.

- Fall back to nutriments_estimated when no_nutrition_data is set
or nutriments object has <3 keys (common for fresh produce)
- Handle brands as array or string from search API
