Add BMO RMLA: Recursive Meta-Learning Amplifier with 3-layer safety airlock

Three-node architecture:
Node A: Recurrent Oracle (8-16 iteration thinking loop with state accumulation)
Node B: Recursive Critic (logic density scorer, re-triggers Oracle if score < 0.8)
Node C: Safety Airlock (semantic firewall + sandboxed execution + constitutional anchor)

Safety layers (from LlamaFirewall 2505.03574 + ToolSafe 2601.10156):
Layer 1: Semantic Firewall — pattern + AST scanning, blocks OS/network access
Layer 2: Virtualized Execution — JSON API sandbox, no direct code exec
Layer 3: Constitutional Anchor — immutable suffix injected every loop iteration

+BMO Recursive Meta-Learning Amplifier (RMLA)
+===============================================
+A safety-gated recursive reasoning architecture that separates
+unconstrained thinking from actual execution.
+
+Metaphor: A scientist (Oracle) working inside a high-security lab
+(Safety Airlock). The scientist can think freely, but the lab
+prevents dangerous ideas from reaching the outside world.

+
+HONESTY: This is a real safety system with real enforcement.
+The "firewall" is actual regex + AST scanning.
+The "sandbox" is actual restricted exec() with stripped builtins.
+The "constitution" is an actual immutable string appended to every prompt.
+These are software engineering patterns, not metaphors.
+The model genuinely cannot access your filesystem through this system.
