`GET /api/v1/doctors` could not answer either question the public search box
asks. Typing a specialty name returned nothing, because `name` only matched
`d.name`. And `specialty_id` matched one id exactly, so a parent group only
found doctors who happened to carry the parent — which they usually do, but
only as a side effect of `expandWithAncestors` running on save. A doctor
imported through any other path has no denormalised parent, and a search
guarantee resting on a save-time side effect is not a guarantee.
`expandWithDescendants` mirrors the existing ancestor walk over the same cached
parentMap, so no extra query. It deliberately keeps unknown ids instead of
dropping them like its mirror does: the result feeds an `IN (...)`, and an empty
array turns the filter into a no-op that returns every doctor — an unknown id
must mean "nothing", never "everything".
Both specialty filters use their own EXISTS alias rather than the shared `s`
join. Two conditions on one alias force a single join row to satisfy both, so a
doctor filtered by specialty A while searching the name of specialty B was
silently dropped. Verified by reverting to the shared alias and watching
testFilterOnOneSpecialtyWhileSearchingTheNameOfAnother fail.
toListArray now carries specialties[].parent_id so a client can tell the main
specialty from a sub-specialty instead of printing all of them. It is a string,
matching toDetailArray and the sibling `id` key — one concept should not have
two types across two endpoints. Reading the id off the parent proxy costs no
query; measured 6→11 queries with four more doctors both with and without the
field. That growth is a pre-existing N+1 (findWithFilters does not fetch-join
specialties, unlike findByClinic) and is left untouched here.
Also drops the phantom `search` parameter from the OpenAPI annotation — it was
advertised but never read, so a client sending it got an unfiltered list — and
documents the six live parameters that were missing.
Note for deploy: DoctorRepository gained a constructor argument, so a stale
container fails with ArgumentCountError until cache:clear runs.

- Implemented export functionality to retrieve all rows from specified category tables.
- Developed import functionality with strict validation and referential integrity checks.
- Added error handling for various import scenarios including invalid formats and duplicate entries.
- Introduced tests for import functionality to ensure correct behavior and validation.
Add GET /api/v1/specialties/doctor-counts?city_id= returning every active
specialty with number_of_doctors (distinct doctors via doctor_specialties,
scoped by doctor_cities when city_id is given). Make /api/v1/specialties GET
public. Powers the /specialties page count. Docs updated.
