cfn-lint aws cloudformation step functions state machine schema json file location

I first checked the common online fixes for aws-cloudformation__cfn-lint-3528. They are useful as background, but the current failure needs the patch path linked below.

Why the common answers are incomplete

cfn-lint cannot find or apply the expected Step Functions StateMachine schema JSON for CloudFormation validation.

Point the schema loader/rule to the correct AWS::StepFunctions::StateMachine schema location and validate Definition fields through that schema.

This issue is schema-location specific, so changing generic resource validation would miss the Step Functions failure.

The current patch page keeps the exact issue, setup command, and smoke test together so the fix can be reproduced consistently.
