fix: resolve three critical bugs from GitHub issue tracker

Fix #684: Prevent Windows reserved filename creation
- Add sanitizeFilename() utility to detect and prefix Windows reserved names
  (NUL, CON, PRN, AUX, COM1-9, LPT1-9)
- Apply sanitization to save-image route to prevent "nul" file creation
- Add 23 comprehensive tests for filename sanitization edge cases

Fix #576: Detect actual dev server port from output
- Parse stdout/stderr for real server URLs (Vite, Next.js, generic formats)
- Update server URL when detected instead of using allocated PORT
- Emit dev-server:url-detected event for frontend updates
- Add 6 tests for URL detection patterns

Fix #193: Commit only feature-specific changes
- Change from 'git add -A' to branch-aware file staging
- Use git diff to find files changed on feature branch only
- Prevent committing unrelated changes from other features
- Maintain backward compatibility with main branch workflow

All fixes include comprehensive tests and maintain backward compatibility.
Test results: 1,968 tests passed (547 package + 1,421 server tests)
