fix: integrate webhook autofixer with MCP server and improve template sanitization

- Register n8n_autofix_workflow handler in MCP server
- Export n8nAutofixWorkflowDoc in tool documentation indices
- Use normalizeNodeType utility in workflow validator for consistent type handling
- Add defensive null checks in template sanitizer to prevent runtime errors
- Update workflow validator test to handle new error message formats

These changes complete the webhook autofixer integration, ensuring the tool
is properly exposed through the MCP server and documentation system.
