fix: sanitize design feedback with trust boundary markers (C4+H5)

Wrap user feedback in <user-feedback> XML markers with tag escaping to
prevent prompt injection via malicious feedback text. Cap accumulated
feedback to last 5 iterations to limit incremental poisoning.
Closes C4 and H5 from security audit #783.
