fix(comparisons): stop recommending Flowise after its end of life and source its facts from Flowise

[waleedlatif1]

Summary

• The Flowise comparison still recommended Flowise in its bottom line ("Choose Flowise if you specifically need…"), built from its first standout feature, even though the open-source project reached end of life on August 31, 2026. Adds an optional chooseCompetitorAnswer profile field that replaces the generated verdict, and sets it for Flowise: choose it only if you already run it and will maintain a fork
• Adds the end of life as Flowise's first documented limitation, so the generated "main difference" and "documented limitations" FAQs state it
• Re-sources the Cloud plan, pricing, deployment, support, SLA, community, data residency, and company facts to flowiseai.com and its sunset page (checked 2026-10-19), replacing a third-party pricing blog. Cloud plans are still listed on flowiseai.com and the sunset notice covers only the open-source project, so the facts say that rather than calling Cloud discontinued. The unsourced 99.99% SLA claim is now "no published SLA"
• The re-dated sources move the page's "last verified", JSON-LD dateModified, and sitemap date to 2026-10-19; getLatestVerifiedDate only reads fact-source dates, so the earlier prose-only update never reached them
• The Flowise FAQ no longer says the npm package and Docker image were marked deprecated: the sunset page said they would be, but npm shows no deprecation and the last release (3.1.4) shipped July 29, 2026
• Sim's free-plan fact now reads "worth $5 on Sim Cloud", since self-hosted deployments can override the free allowance

Type of Change

• Bug fix

Testing

• Ran buildBottomLine, buildComparisonFaqs, and the latest-verified date for all 20 competitors before and after: only Flowise changed (verdict, limitation FAQs, date 2026-10-15 → 2026-10-19); Sim's verdict is byte-identical
• Checked every new Flowise fact against the raw HTML of flowiseai.com and flowiseai.com/sunset, npm view flowise, and the GitHub repository
• biome; check:source-conventions, check:comment-hygiene, check:unused-exports, check:site-urls
