Citation text from the card

Four tools expose the **reference graph**: 8.76 million extracted case-citation references, 6.42 million resolved decision-to-decision links, and 11.23 million statute references. These require the graph database (`output/reference_graph.db`); if it's not available, the tools return a message instead of failing.

**`find_citations`** — Given a decision, show its outgoing citations (what it references) and incoming citations (what references it). Each resolved citation includes the target decision's metadata and a confidence score. Unresolved references (e.g., older decisions not in the dataset) appear with their raw reference text.
