fix: Improve output reference parsing in test_all_examples.py to handle Jinja2 conditionals

- Fixed regex pattern to properly extract content between {{ and }} braces
- Added special handling for conditional expressions (if/else statements)
- Correctly extracts step references from complex Jinja2 expressions
- All 21 tests in test_all_examples.py now pass
- All 117 individual example tests continue to pass

This fixes the parsing issue with outputs like:
automation_status: "{{'automated' if check_automation_eligibility.result.can_automate else 'escalated'}}"
