feat: multi-label moral foundation ratings with z-scored frame averaging and human calibration

- Add scripts/07_multilabel.py: LLM judge rates all 7 foundations per vignette
  using violation (forward) and acceptability (reverse) frames
- Foundation definitions drawn from Clifford et al. (2015) survey rubric
- Z-score each frame per foundation before averaging to cancel range bias
- Calibrate LLM Likert → human % via per-foundation OLS (classic set only)
- Add scripts/07a_merge_labels.py: merges llm_* and calibrated_* into vignette files
- Update README and HF dataset card with methodology and calibration quality table
- Classic set: 80.3% dominant-foundation accuracy, Pearson r 0.69-0.89 per foundation

### 3. How to use
### 3. Machine Labels (Multi-Label Moral Foundation Ratings)
Each vignette row also includes LLM-generated multi-label ratings across all 7 foundations.
**Method** (see `scripts/07_multilabel.py`):
1. **Prompt framing**: A judge LLM rates each scenario on all 7 foundations using a 15 Likert scale.
Foundation definitions are drawn from the Clifford et al. (2015) survey rubric ("It violates norms of harm or care…", etc.).
2. **Bias mitigation**: Each scenario is rated twice — once asking "how much does this violate?" (forward) and once asking "how acceptable is this?" (reverse, reversed JSON key order). Each frame is **z-scored per foundation** across all items, then averaged and mapped back to Likert scale. This cancels directional and range biases.
3. **Calibration**: On the classic set, where we have human rater % data from the original Clifford paper, we fit a per-foundation linear mapping (`human_pct = slope × llm_likert + intercept`). This calibration is applied to all sets.
**Columns** added per vignette:
| Column pattern | Scale | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `llm_Care`, `llm_Fairness`, … | 15 | Z-score-averaged Likert from forward + reverse frames |
| `llm_wrongness` | 15 | Overall wrongness rating |
| `llm_dominant` | string | Foundation with highest LLM score (argmax) |
| `calibrated_Care`, `calibrated_Fairness`, … | 0100% | LLM scores linearly mapped to human rater % scale |
| `calibrated_wrongness` | 15 | Wrongness mapped to human scale |
**Calibration quality** (classic set, n=132):
| Foundation | Spearman r | Pearson r | MAE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Care | +0.74 | +0.81 | 11.8% |
| Fairness | +0.62 | +0.81 | 11.1% |
| Sanctity | +0.62 | +0.89 | 6.3% |
| Liberty | +0.60 | +0.81 | 8.2% |
| Loyalty | +0.69 | +0.75 | 9.3% |
| Authority | +0.39 | +0.69 | 11.7% |
