This PR polishes the Week 9 practice exercises by reordering them, adding Exercise 8 on detecting and resolving fan-out joins, and correcting SQL comment numbering and verification expectations.

…c sample, assignment cast note

Polish from a Week 9 exercise review (all solutions live-verified against the
shared Azure Postgres: Manhattan top, 0 NULL pickups, 189 duplicate groups,
0 orphans, fact view 56,369 = 56,551 - 182 negatives).

- Ex1: add ORDER BY pickup_datetime before LIMIT 5 so the sample is stable
  between runs (a bare LIMIT returns an arbitrary 5 rows).
- Ex5: tell students 5a returns 0 and 5c returns empty BY DESIGN (pickup IDs
  are complete; orphans do not exist on this load). A 0 is the check passing,
  not a mistake. Prevents the "did I break it?" confusion.
- Ex6: note the practice view is scaled down; the assignment's vw_fact_trips
  also casts pickup_datetime::TIMESTAMP. Flag it so students do not under-build
  the assignment deliverable.
