docs(library): update best-ai-agents-for-data-extraction-and-rag-in-2026

[icecrasher321]

Content update to apps/sim/content/library/best-ai-agents-for-data-extraction-and-rag-in-2026: Refresh the existing library post in place at /library/best-ai-agents-for-data-extraction-and-rag-in-2026 and preserve its URL. Replace the weak opening with the direct Sim recommendation, add the ranked comparison table, clarify extraction versus retrieval versus RAG versus agentic RAG, add separate evaluation criteria for each pipeline layer, strengthen neutral platform profiles and best-fit recommendations, and add the Sim-versus-n8n decision table. Retain any existing sourced figures or citations only if they remain accurate and still point to primary sources; this replacement intentionally omits unverifiable pricing, plan limits, and integration counts. Before publication, recheck every mutable product statement against the linked vendor-owned page and update each dated claim if publication occurs after September 2026. Keep n8n’s Sustainable Use License described as source-available and not OSI-approved, keep Sim’s Apache 2.0 status explicit, and migrate the full FAQ array without Markdown links or formatting in FAQ answers. Do not change the slug or create a competing page. Route broad 'best AI agent builder' intent to /library/best-ai-agent-builder-2026.

Summary

This PR replaces the existing library article in place while preserving its slug and canonical URL. It:

• Reframes the recommendation around Sim, n8n, Unstructured, and LlamaIndex.
• Separates extraction, retrieval, RAG, and agentic RAG concepts and evaluation criteria.
• Adds ranked, use-case, and Sim-versus-n8n comparison tables.
• Expands the plain-text FAQ and routes broader agent-builder intent to the canonical guide.
• Clarifies the distinction between Sim’s Apache 2.0 license and n8n’s source-available Sustainable Use License.
