docs: update progress tracking for AI normalization implementation

Updated PROGRESS.md:
- Changed Last Updated to 2025-11-02
- Updated Overall Completion to 57% (was 55%)
- Stage 2 Feature Discussion now explicitly notes AI normalization
- Added AI normalization details to Multi-Provider AI System section
- Documented two-tier architecture (AI primary, fallback secondary)

Updated DESIGN.md:
- Changed Updated date to 2025-11-02
- Added "Multi-Provider Fallback" to implemented features
- Added "AI Normalization" to implemented features
- Reflects current system capabilities

Both documents now accurately track the completed AI normalization work
that enables natural conversation in discussions without strict formatting.
