Interview Prompt
Given old_schema and new_schema (each a list of {'name', 'type'} dicts), return a dict with: 'added' (list of column names in new only), 'removed' (list of column names in old only), 'type_changed' (list of {'name', 'old_type', 'new_type'} dicts where the same column name has different types). Sort each list by name ascending.
Summary
Schema from yesterday vs today. Something changed.
