fix(types): resolve all mypy type errors (CORE-003)

- Fix return type annotation for get_default_premium_for_product
- Add type narrowing for Weight|Money union using _as_money helper
- Add isinstance checks before float() calls for object types
- Add type guard for Decimal.exponent comparison
- Use _unit_typed and _currency_typed properties for type narrowing
- Cast option_type to OptionType Literal after validation
- Fix provider type hierarchy in backtesting services
- Add types-requests to dev dependencies
- Remove '|| true' from CI type-check job

All 36 mypy errors resolved across 15 files.

+
+implementation_notes: |
+  The root cause is that frozen dataclass fields with `Field: UnionType`
+  are not narrowed by `__post_init__` coercion. Mypy sees the declared
+  type, not the runtime type.
+  
+  Solutions:
+  1. Add `@property def _field_typed(self) -> NarrowType:` for internal use
+  2. Use `cast(NarrowType, self.field)` at call sites
+  3. Use `isinstance` checks before operations requiring narrow type
+  
+  Pattern example from units.py fix:
+  ```python
+  @property
+  def _unit_typed(self) -> WeightUnit:
+      """Type-narrowed unit accessor for internal use."""
+      return self.unit  # type: ignore[return-value]
+  
+  def to_unit(self, unit: WeightUnit) -> Weight:
+      return Weight(amount=convert_weight(self.amount, self._unit_typed, unit), unit=unit)
+  ```
