refactor: remove standalone validate CLI command

- Remove validate command implementation and tests
- Remove command registration from CLI
- Remove ValidateCommandArgs interface
- Update documentation (README.md and ARCHITECTURE.md)

Internal validation methods (engine.validate, loader.validate, config.validate)
remain intact for use by other commands like run.

 ## 7. Rarely-Used Features: Removal Candidates
 
-### 7.1 Validation Command
-
-**Command**: `modestbench validate [patterns..]`  
-**Location**: `src/cli/commands/validate.ts`
-
-#### Opinion: 🤔 CONSIDER REMOVAL
-
-**Current Features**:
-
-- Validates benchmark files without running them
-- `--fix` flag for auto-fixing issues
-- `--strict` mode for treating warnings as errors
-
-**Issues**:
-
-1. **Redundant**: The `run` command validates files before execution anyway
-2. **Limited value**: Syntax validation is superficial (bracket counting)
-3. **No auto-fix implementation**: The `--fix` flag is defined but has no implementation
-4. **Low usage**: Validation is typically done during runs
-
-**Alternative**: Keep validation as part of `run` command, remove standalone command
-
-**Maintenance burden**: ~300 lines of code across command + implementation
