updated remaining modules to use request helpers

Standardize Return Types and Refactor Request Helpers

Overview

This PR addresses #149 by standardizing return types across all list_* functions and introducing centralized request helper utilities to ensure consistent behavior throughout the Chronicle SDK.

Changes

Module Refactoring

Chronicle modules have been refactored to use the centralized request helpers:

• client.py - ChronicleClient core functionality
• dashboard_query.py - Dashboard query operations
• data_export.py - Data export functionality
• data_table.py - Data table operations
• entity.py - Entity management
• feeds.py - Feed operations
• gemini.py - Gemini AI integration
• investigations.py - Investigation management
• ioc.py - Indicator of Compromise handling
• log_ingest.py - Log ingestion
• log_processing_pipelines.py - Log processing pipeline management
• log_types.py - Log type operations
• nl_search.py - Natural language search
• parser.py - Parser management
• parser_extension.py - Parser extension handling
• reference_list.py - Reference list operations
• rule.py - Rule management
• rule_alert.py - Rule alert handling
• rule_detection.py - Rule detection operations
• rule_exclusion.py - Rule exclusion management
• rule_set.py - Rule set operations

Testing

Comprehensive test updates across all affected modules:

• Updated 18 test files to validate new behavior
• Added tests for both as_list=True and as_list=False modes
• Validated error handling improvements

Breaking Changes

Migration Path: Users relying on dict return types should:

1. Review their code for list_* function calls
2. Add as_list=False parameter if they need the full response with metadata
3. Update code to handle list return types if using as_list=True (or default behavior changes)

@mihirvala08 I've got a few minor changes based on some other standardisation and refactoring I was doing at the same time as moving over to the helpers. I can't modify this one, so I will open a new PR into this branch
