feat: Add optimistic updates and improve component reliability

- Add optimistic updates for knowledge_type changes in useUpdateKnowledgeItem
- Update both detail and summary caches to prevent visual reversion
- Refactor KnowledgeCardType to use controlled Radix Select component
- Remove manual click-outside detection in favor of Radix onOpenChange
- Protect tag editing state from being overwritten by external updates
- Ensure user input is preserved during active editing sessions
