Subject: [PATCH] feat(polymarket): add buildOnly mode to createOrder for
 unsigned transactions

Adds a buildOnly parameter to CreateOrderParams that when set to true,
returns the signed order data without submitting to the network. This
enables non-custodial integrations where users can sign and broadcast
transactions themselves or route them through on-chain middleware.

Fixes #53
