feat: Add nested data support for line charts#2452
Draft
Conversation
… notation - Enable line charts to accept nested Malloy query data as input - Support dot notation for field paths (e.g., x='monthly_sales.dcId') - Implement automatic field detection for nested data structures - Add flattening logic to transform nested data for Vega visualization - Create placeholder Field objects with required properties including tag - Update story examples to demonstrate nested line chart usage The implementation prioritizes nested data detection over flat data when auto-detecting fields, with series using outer dimensions and x/y using inner nested fields. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
This PR adds support for nested data structures in line charts, allowing visualization of hierarchical Malloy query results. Users can now specify nested field paths using intuitive dot notation (e.g.,
x='monthly_sales.dcId').Key Changes
