Run gap analysis against scan results

Runs gap analysis for a framework over caller-supplied scan results and returns { report, remediationPlan }. Body: framework (1-120 chars, required — one of eu-ai-act | iso-42001 | nist-rmf | india-dpdp-act | hipaa | fedramp | pci-dss; anything else is 400 listing the accepted ids) and scanResults (object, required) is passed to GapAnalysis UNVALIDATED — it must already carry a SecurityScanResult shape (`findings[]` plus counts); a body without `findings` throws inside the analyzer and answers 500, not a validation 400. Pure function over the body plus the compiled framework definitions — nothing is read from or written to a tenant table.
