Subject: [PATCH] Use whereLike for search so MySQL works alongside PostgreSQL
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Seven search call sites used the `ilike` operator, which only PostgreSQL
understands. On MySQL they raise a syntax error, so post, asset, label,
signature and workspace-member search — plus the MCP list-posts tool —
were unusable on an engine `config/database.php` has always supported and
the docs advertise.

Replace them with `whereLike($column, $value)`, which the query grammars
translate per driver: PostgresGrammar emits `ilike` and MySqlGrammar emits
`like`. The generated SQL on PostgreSQL is therefore unchanged.

Verified by running the full suite on both engines:

  PostgreSQL 16    3888 passed, 0 failed
  MySQL 8.0.46     one pre-existing failure fixed, none introduced

Also adds case-insensitivity assertions to the five affected suites that
lacked them, and search coverage for ListPostsTool, which had none.

Note for MySQL installs: `like` is case-insensitive by virtue of the
column collation, not the operator. Under the default `utf8mb4_unicode_ci`
it is also accent-insensitive, so a search for "cafe" matches a stored
"café" — PostgreSQL's `ilike` does not. That difference comes from the
collation rather than this change. A `_bin` or `_cs` collation would make
search case-sensitive on both.
