The owner↔reviewer↔arbiter loop could repeat forever: when the arbiter
ruled PROCEED/REVISE/RESET it reset round_trip_count to 0, and nothing
tracked how many times the arbiter had already intervened. A re-deadlock
re-invoked the arbiter without bound.
Add a persistent arbiter_intervention_count (new column + migration 020)
that survives the round-trip reset, and a configurable cap
ARBITER_MAX_INTERVENTIONS (default 1). Once the arbiter has intervened
that many times and the loop still deadlocks, requestArbiterOrEscalate
escalates straight to the user instead of re-invoking the arbiter.
