feat: add CCW Loop System for automated iterative workflow execution

Implements a complete loop execution system with multi-loop parallel support, dashboard monitoring, and comprehensive security validation. Core features: - Loop orchestration engine (loop-manager, loop-state-manager) - Multi-loop parallel execution with independent state management - REST API endpoints for loop control (pause, resume, stop, retry) - WebSocket real-time status updates - Dashboard Loop Monitor view with live updates - Security: path traversal protection and sandboxed JavaScript evaluation Test coverage: - 42 comprehensive tests covering multi-loop, API, WebSocket, security - Security validation for success_condition injection attacks - Edge case handling and end-to-end workflow tests
