refactor: Replace regex-based INTO removal with AST preprocessing

Replace brittle regex pattern with proper AST-based INTO clause removal
following the established query plan infrastructure pattern (CTEHoister,
ExpressionLifter, etc.).

Changes:
- Add IntoClauseRemover in src/query_plan/into_clause_remover.rs
  - Recursively removes INTO clauses from all query levels
  - Handles subqueries in FROM, JOIN, SELECT, WHERE, set operations
  - Includes unit tests for simple and nested cases

- Update non_interactive.rs to use AST approach instead of regex
  - Old: regex pattern r"(?i)\s+INTO\s+#\w+"
  - New: IntoClauseRemover + AST formatter

- Export IntoClauseRemover from query_plan module

Benefits:
- Robust: Handles all edge cases including nested subqueries
- Maintainable: AST manipulation instead of fragile regex
- Consistent: Follows existing architecture pattern
- Correct: Proper SQL formatting via AST formatter

Testing:
- All 397 tests pass
- examples/tmp_table.sql works correctly
- Proper output: "(24 rows affected) -> #high_value_sales"

+/// INTO Clause Remover - Removes INTO clause from AST for execution
+///
+/// This module implements AST rewriting to remove the INTO clause from
+/// SELECT statements. The INTO clause is used to store query results in
+/// temporary tables, but the query executor doesn't understand this syntax.
+///
+/// The removal is done at the AST level (not via regex) to ensure correctness
+/// and maintainability. The caller is responsible for capturing the INTO table
+/// information before removal and storing the results after execution.
+///
+/// Example transformation:
+/// ```sql
+/// -- Input:
+/// SELECT col1, col2 INTO #temp FROM table WHERE x > 5
+///
+/// -- Output (for execution):
+/// SELECT col1, col2 FROM table WHERE x > 5
+/// ```
