frictionless describe --json data.csv > schema.json creates a resource
descriptor, but frictionless validate schema.json selects schema metadata
validation because of the filename. The CLI help currently suggests only
resource or package validation, which obscures this behavior.

This updates the help and console documentation to explain filename precedence,
show resource.json and --type resource alternatives, and distinguish --type
from --schema. Validation behavior is unchanged.

Validation: seven focused cases using the real CLI passed on source commit
5debad3409639438bb4dbffa15d200dbb458a555 (5.20.0rc1, Python 3.12.3), covering
valid data, invalid data, filename inference, an explicit resource type and
schema-only validation. CLI help renders successfully. The full test suite and
Livemark build were not run; no CI result is claimed.
