ci: base64 encode multiline strings in structured output

Avoid claude trying to escape characters in the structured JSON by
just having it base64 encode the multiline strings in the structured
JSON.

           ## Review result
 
           Produce your review result as structured output. The fields are:
-          - `summary`: Markdown summary for the tracking comment.
+          - `summary`: The markdown summary for the tracking comment, **base64-encoded**.
+            Write the summary to a temporary file first, then encode it with
+            `base64 -w0 /tmp/summary.md` and put the resulting string in this field.
           - `comments`: Array of review comments (same schema as the reviewer output above).
+            The `body` field of each comment must also be **base64-encoded** the same way.
           - `resolve`: REST API IDs of review comment threads to resolve.
