A looker-get-dimensions tool returns all the dimensions from a given explore
in a given model in the source.

looker-get-dimensions accepts two parameters, the model and the explore.
Example

The get_dimensions tool retrieves the list of dimensions defined in
an explore.
It takes two parameters, the model_name looked up from get_models and the
explore_name looked up from get_explores.
If this returns a suggestions field for a dimension, the contents of suggestions
can be used as filters for this field. If this returns a suggest_explore and
suggest_dimension, a query against that explore and dimension can be used to find
valid filters for this field.
The response is a json array with the following elements:
{
"name": "field name",
"description": "field description",
"type": "field type",
"label": "field label",
"label_short": "field short label",
"tags": ["tags", ...],
"synonyms": ["synonyms", ...],
"suggestions": ["suggestion", ...],
"suggest_explore": "explore",
"suggest_dimension": "dimension"
}
