   ## Why remove instead of deprecate?
   
   `camel-spring-ai-tools` was a consumer-only component. No producer. Its only 
job was registering Camel routes as Spring AI `ToolCallback` objects into 
`CamelToolExecutorCache`. Then `spring-ai-chat` would read from that cache.
   
   Step 3 already changed `spring-ai-chat` to use `AiToolRegistry` instead. 
Nothing reads from `CamelToolExecutorCache` anymore. The component is dead in 
4.22.
   
   Deprecating it would leave a component that silently drops tool 
registrations. Users would see no errors but tools would stop working. A clean 
removal with a clear upgrade guide is more honest than a silent no-op.
   
   This is different from `camel-langchain4j-tools` (deprecated in Step 4).
   
    ## Summary
   - Remove the `camel-spring-ai-tools` module
   - Remove from BOM, parent, catalog, coverage, and MojoHelper
   - Update upgrade guide: component "has been removed"
   - Generated files (DSL, catalog, SBOM, nav) cleaned up by the build
   
   ## Migration
   Replace `spring-ai-tools:` consumer routes with `ai-tool:`:
   
   ```java
     // Before
     from("spring-ai-tools:weather?tags=weather&description=Get 
weather&parameter.city=string")
   
     // After
     from("ai-tool:weather?tags=weather&description=Get 
weather&parameter.city=string")
   
   ```
    Add camel-ai-tool dependency. Remove camel-spring-ai-tools.
