v3.5.4 — Robust attack chaining & false-positive reduction

Bundles the multi-round post-exploitation attack-chaining engine (attack_chain:
per-foothold decisions, loot carried forward, validate-before-pivot, loop-until-
dry, --chain-depth) and the false-positive controls (robust verdict parsing,
severity-aware quorum, adversarial refute pass, stronger validator prompt).
Version bumped 3.5.3 -> 3.5.4; README/RELEASE updated.
