Description

https://nhsd-jira.digital.nhs.uk/browse/ELI-579

COVID-19 Too Close to Previous dose calculation (add days template function). Specifically, adding the ability to have an 'in config' function call to an ADD_DAYS function, which allows the return of relative dates. This functionality leverages the existing token parsing functionality, and extends it to allow function calls beyond date formatting.

Context

Allows us to derive values to return to the user.

I took inspiration from MCP type approaches for LLMs, in that we can set up a 'registry' of tools which we can then make available using the plain text 'function calls'. I've tried to make the approach extendable, so that additional functions for specific purposes can be added by simply creating a class which inherits the base class.

See https://nhsd-confluence.digital.nhs.uk/spaces/Vacc/pages/1254943977/Configuration+driven+derivations for a more in-depth explanation of the changes and how they fit into the existing flow.
