feat: Cast Iron Scout multi-channel expansion

- Added Craigslist scanner framework
- Added Facebook Marketplace placeholder
- Updated main scanner to aggregate all sources
- Added STATUS.md for development tracking
- Fixed import paths for all scanners
- Ready for HTML scraping implementation

Current status:
- eBay: RSS built but unreliable, need HTML scraping
- Craigslist: Framework ready, debugging HTML parsing
- Facebook: Placeholder (needs Selenium)
- All sources tracked in unified scan loop
