root b48d155c1b CLI improvements: --json output, filters, arch-search, ecal-score, deck fixes
6 CLI improvements from MCP integration testing + deck bug fixes:

- kb_cli.py: --json on search, new arch-search and ecal-score subcommands,
  _load_yaml handles multi-document YAML (fixes health command on 32 files)
- findings_cli.py: --json on search/list/stats, filter flags on search
  (--product, --severity, --tag, --client, --status, --category)
- validate-architecture.py: --profile optional, --output defaults to stdout
- common-objections.yaml + ecal-artefacts-catalog.yaml: merge front matter
- oci_deck_gen.py: fix slide 9 cost_notes char iteration, fix slide 12
  migration field mapping (duration/milestones), dynamic phase spacing
- proposal-spec.yaml: replace real name with fictional Carlos Mendoza

All 14 skill options validated with generated deliverables.
