Returns top 3 language matches, script detection (Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic, CJK, Devanagari), and character statistics. Ideal for multilingual content routing, pre-translation detection, and content filtering. Do NOT use for translation — use text_translate. Do NOT use for sentiment — use text_analyze_sentiment.
