fix(server): CORS, sanitization, concurrency, parameter override, mount at /ui

- Fix CORS: set allow_credentials=False with allow_origins=['*']
- Replace bleach sanitizer with regex (strips HTML tags + control chars)
- Add asyncio.Lock for concurrent-safe reset/step/grade
- Block action.parameters from overriding type/query/answer
- Mount Gradio UI at /ui instead of / (avoids catch-all route)
- Add root redirect / -> /ui
- Adjust grader test threshold for sentence-level matching
