feat(frontend): structured data cards + chat renderer API for rich message rendering

Agent responses containing JSON/structured data (like mission results,
status objects) now render as styled cards with labeled fields, status
badges, and monospaced IDs instead of raw text.

Built-in rendering:
- Detects inline JSON objects (including Python-style single quotes)
- Renders as data cards with key-value rows
- Status/state fields get colored badges (success/error/pending)
- UUIDs rendered in monospace

Extensible via widgets:
- IronClaw.registerChatRenderer({ id, match, render, priority })
- First matching renderer wins (priority ordering)
- Renderer gets the content element to mutate in place

Also adds ChatRenderer variant to WidgetSlot enum.
