<issue_title>Validate JSON Schemas Against Real Sample Data</issue_title> <issue_description>## 🎯 Objective Validate 5 JSON export schemas against 142 real sample data CSV files to ensure correctness

📋 Background

JSON export specifications define schemas for politician, party, committee, ministry, and intelligence data per json-export-specs/. These schemas need validation against actual sample data to ensure accurate data model representation.

📊 Current State (Measured Metrics)

• JSON Schemas: 5 defined (politician-schema.md, party-schema.md, committee-schema.md, ministry-schema.md, intelligence-schema.md)
• Sample Data Files: 142 CSV files in service.data.impl/sample-data/
• Schema Validation: Not performed - schemas based on documentation only
• Data Model Accuracy: Unknown - requires verification

✅ Acceptance Criteria

• [ ] Automated validation script comparing JSON schemas to sample data structure
• [ ] All 5 schemas validated against corresponding CSV files
• [ ] Mismatches between schemas and data documented
• [ ] Schemas updated to reflect actual data structure
• [ ] Continuous validation integrated into CI/CD pipeline
