Renames the Formatter interface to Dialect and refactors Format methods to accept the dialect as a parameter instead of storing it in TrackedBuffer. **Interface Changes:** - Rename `format.Formatter` to `format.Dialect` - Change Format signature from `Format(buf *TrackedBuffer)` to `Format(buf *TrackedBuffer, d format.Dialect)` **TrackedBuffer Simplification:** - Remove `formatter` field from TrackedBuffer struct - TrackedBuffer is now a simple strings.Builder wrapper - NewTrackedBuffer() no longer takes a dialect parameter **Method Call Updates:** - `buf.astFormat(x)` → `buf.astFormat(x, d)` - `buf.join(x, sep)` → `buf.join(x, d, sep)` - Helper methods now called directly on dialect: - `buf.QuoteIdent(x)` → `d.QuoteIdent(x)` - `buf.TypeName(ns, name)` → `d.TypeName(ns, name)` - `buf.Param(n)` → `d.Param(n)` - `buf.Cast(arg, t)` → `d.Cast(arg, t)` - `buf.NamedParam(name)` → `d.NamedParam(name)` This change makes the dialect dependency explicit in Format methods and simplifies TrackedBuffer to be purely a buffer utility. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

The name "Dialect" better describes what this interface represents - SQL dialect-specific formatting behavior. Making the dialect an explicit parameter to Format methods:
