Miha Kralj 35a6702b06 fix(docs): correct .md documentation across errors, dynamics, filters, forecasts, momentum, numerics, oscillators, reversals, statistics, trends, volatility, volume
Deep review of all indicator categories verified .md headers against .cs WarmupPeriod, parameters, inputs, and outputs. Fixes include warmup corrections, parameter documentation, output type accuracy, and Pine Script alignment.
