Improve report readability and add score breakdown

- Add Score Breakdown section showing how score is calculated - Convert variable-style flag names to readable titles (e.g. UnverifiedDirectorClaim -> Unverified Director Claim) - Deduplicate flags in report display for existing reports - Make verification notes more user-friendly - Add "How Scoring Works" explanation panel Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
