fix: Prevent XSS in HTML reports (fixes #54) (#62)

Eliminated double JSON encoding that could allow XSS attacks.

Security improvements:
- Pass dicts to template instead of pre-serialized JSON
- Use Jinja2's tojson filter for proper JavaScript escaping
- Remove unnecessary JSON.parse() calls
- Prevent malicious data from breaking JavaScript context

CVSS Score: 7.1 (High) → Resolved
Attack Vector: Malicious repository metadata in HTML reports
Mitigation: Single-encoding with Jinja2's safe tojson filter

Technical Details:
- Changed assessment_json → assessment_dict (dict, not string)
- Changed available_themes_json → available_themes_dict
- Updated template to use tojson without JSON.parse()
- Jinja2 autoescape + tojson provides comprehensive protection
