feat(iace): per-category hazard caps for precision improvement

Add categoryHazardCap() with ISO 12100-proportional limits:
- mechanical: 3x components (min 15, max 60)
- electrical: 1x components (min 8, max 20)
- secondary (thermal, noise, material): 4-8
- software/IT/organizational: 2-5 (minimal for machinery assessment)
