Simplify VB.NET dispatcher commands and update usage examples

- Removed `--project VBNetSamples.vbproj` argument for all `dotnet`
  commands across documentation and sample scripts.
- Updated all usage examples in `README.md`, `AGENTS.md`, and VB.NET
  examples for consistency.
- Refined build and run instructions to align with cleaner syntax.
- Improved tip section formatting for piping output to files.

-- Run a sample via dispatcher: `dotnet run --project VBNetSamples.vbproj -- <command> [args]`.

+- Restore/build (from VB.NET folder): `dotnet restore && dotnet build`.

+  - Example: `dotnet run -- markdown /path/to/input.pdf`.
 - Dependencies:
   - `.env` loading is included via `DotNetEnv`.
-  - Optional JSON helper: `dotnet add VBNetSamples.vbproj package Newtonsoft.Json` (only if a sample uses it).

 - File-focused testing: keep each sample self-contained (accept input path as first arg; minimal edits).
