fix: type-checker errors, missing imports, lint issues

- LLM.call() return type -> str | Any (keeps callers happy)
- Add type: ignore for runtime-compatible dict -> LLMMessage cast
- Add missing typing.Any import to llm_result.py
- Fix dict -> dict[str, Any] for type params
- Restore unittest.mock imports in tests
- All 17 tests passing
