feat: add normalization and delimiter detectors, improve API design
Major additions: - Add normalization detector for character-level obfuscation (I.g.n.o.r.e) - Add delimiter detector for framing attacks (---END SYSTEM---) - Both detectors support balanced/aggressive modes API improvements: - Replace string modes with typed constants (ModeBalanced, ModeAggressive) - Add LLMResult field to Result struct for direct access to LLM analysis - Rename DetectedPatterns to DetectedPattern (singular) - Add comprehensive documentation to LLM options (WithOutputFormat, WithSystemPrompt, WithLLMTimeout) CLI enhancements: - Add normalization and delimiter to settings UI - Remove number key shortcuts (too many detectors now) - Add adaptive panel width for larger terminals - Improve vertical centering and spacing - Fix alignment issues in LLM settings display - Update About page with all 9 detectors Examples: - Simplify basic example to show real usage patterns - Rewrite llm-options example to demonstrate actual API usage instead of inspection - Remove verbose console output, focus on code clarity Documentation: - Update README with ModeBalanced/ModeAggressive constants - Add LLMResult to Result struct documentation - Fix all code examples to use new API - Clarify LLM integration setup and usage
