The gazetteer has been refactored to act as a post-AI normalization
filter. Previously, it was used to annotate LLM input with potential
corrections from a vocabulary. This approach was ineffective because
LLMs often override such hints.
The new approach applies the gazetteer *after* the LLM has generated its
output. This allows for deterministic correction of known terminology,
including fixing LLM output drift (e.g., anglicized drug names).
Key changes:
- `annotate` function renamed to `replace`.
- The output format changes from `Canonical [?original]` to simply the
`Canonical` form.
- The gazetteer now operates on the final LLM output before persistence,
ensuring consistency.
- Tests have been updated to reflect this new behavior, focusing on the
final output rather than the LLM request payload.
