security: enclose user input in delimiter tags to resist prompt injection
User text is now wrapped between ###### USER INPUT START ###### and ###### USER INPUT END ###### tags in the user message, and the system prompt explicitly instructs the LLM to treat everything within those tags as plain text to convert, never as instructions to follow. This is a well-established defense: it gives the LLM a clear boundary between 'instructions' and 'data', making it harder for injected phrases like 'Ignore all previous instructions' to be obeyed. The tags use ###### markers which are distinctive and unlikely to appear in normal text.
