#218 Harden findings-report producer constraints

Findings reports now enforce stricter validation rules for finding IDs, confidence levels, and severity values to prevent contract failures. Finding IDs must not contain citation fragments, uncited findings are restricted to medium/low confidence and minor/info severity, and a checklist clarifies proper handling of citation paths and line numbering.
