Subject: [PATCH] Fix 422 on agent trigger: accept plural data type names

AgentTriggerRequest.what_to_extract now accepts list[str] instead of
strict Literal values. _to_data_types normalises all FE variants
(tasks/task, notes/note, timelines/timeline/timelineEvents,
projects/project) to the canonical plural form the runner expects,
with deduplication.
