feat(linter): add linter runner for multi-language repo scanning (closes #155)

Implements #155 — Linter Runner that detects languages per repo, runs
linters (pylint, eslint, shellcheck, yamllint), collects violations,
and outputs structured reports.

Acceptance criteria all met:
- Detects language per repo (extension-based)
- Runs pylint, eslint, shellcheck, yamllint
- Collects violations (file, line, column, message, severity, linter, code)
- Output: lint report per repo (console table or --format json)

Files: scripts/linter_runner.py (main module), tests/test_linter_runner.py (12 tests)

+Linter Runner — detect languages and run linters across a repo.
+
+Acceptance criteria for #155:
+  [x] Detects language per repo
+  [x] Runs: pylint, eslint, shellcheck, etc.
+  [x] Collects violations (file, line, message, severity)
+  [x] Output: lint report per repo
+
+Usage:
+    python3 scripts/linter_runner.py --repo .
+    python3 scripts/linter_runner.py --all  # Scan all repos in knowledge/repos/
+    python3 scripts/linter_runner.py --repo . --format json  # Machine-readable output
+    python3 scripts/linter_runner.py --repo . --fail-on error  # Exit non-zero if errors found
+
+Output format (console):
+  === Lint Report: repo ===
+  Python: 3 issues (1 error, 2 warnings)
+  Shell:  1 issue (1 error)
+  Total:  4 issues
+
+Output format (JSON): --format json
+  {"repo": "...", "issues": [...], "summary": {...}}
