feat: add patchNodeField operation for surgical string edits (v2.46.0) (#698)

Browse Source 
Add dedicated `patchNodeField` operation to `n8n_update_partial_workflow`
for surgical find/replace edits in node string fields. Strict alternative
to the existing `__patch_find_replace` in updateNode — errors on not-found,
detects ambiguous matches, supports replaceAll and regex flags.

Security hardening:
- Prototype pollution protection in setNestedProperty/getNestedProperty
- ReDoS protection rejecting unsafe regex patterns (nested quantifiers)
- Resource limits: max 50 patches, 500-char regex, 512KB field size

Fixes #696

### Node Operations (6 types):
### Node Operations (7 types):
- **addNode**: Add a new node with name, type, and position (required)
- **removeNode**: Remove a node by ID or name
- **updateNode**: Update node properties using dot notation (e.g., 'parameters.url')
- **patchNodeField**: Surgically edit string fields using find/replace patches. Strict mode: errors if find string not found, errors if multiple matches (ambiguity) unless replaceAll is set. Supports replaceAll and regex flags.
- **moveNode**: Change node position [x, y]
- **enableNode**: Enable a disabled node
- **disableNode**: Disable an active node
