Implement wave-based scaling system for CHORUS Docker Swarm orchestration

- Health gates system for pre-scaling validation (KACHING, BACKBEAT, bootstrap peers)
- Assignment broker API for per-replica configuration management
- Bootstrap pool management with weighted peer selection and health monitoring
- Wave-based scaling algorithm with exponential backoff and failure recovery
- Enhanced SwarmManager with Docker service scaling capabilities
- Comprehensive scaling metrics collection and reporting system
- RESTful HTTP API for external scaling operations and monitoring
- Integration with CHORUS P2P networking and assignment systems
