fix: Relax SearchResult validation to support DBSF fusion scores > 1.0

Fix false-positive validation error where DBSF (Distribution-Based Score
Fusion) correctly produces scores > 1.0 but SearchResult validation
incorrectly rejected them.

**Root Cause**: SearchResult.__post_init__() enforced scores in [0.0, 1.0]
range, but DBSF sums normalized scores from multiple retrieval systems
(dense semantic + sparse BM25), resulting in scores like 1.55 when both
systems strongly agree a document is relevant.

**Changes**:
- Relaxed validation to allow any score ≥ 0.0 (algorithms.py:147-157)
- Updated SearchResult and SemanticSearchResult documentation to explain
  score ranges for RRF ([0.0, 1.0]) vs DBSF (unbounded)
- Added comprehensive test coverage for both fusion methods
- Added DBSF fusion option to vector visualization UI
- Updated viz routes and vizApp() to support fusion parameter selection

**Testing**: All 157 unit tests pass, type checking passes, ruff passes

Fixes error: "Configuration error: Score must be between 0.0 and 1.0, got 1.1528953"
