Proposed changes

Implements all three features requested in #5567:

1. Profile Metadata Fields - Add id, name, purpose, description fields
2. Inline Target Lists - Support list: | multiline YAML syntax
3. Inline Secrets - Embed secrets directly in profile YAML

Proof

Feature 1: Profile Metadata Works

Profile with metadata parses without errors:

id: test-profile
name: Test Profile
purpose: Testing new profile features
description: This profile tests the new metadata fields
severity:
  - critical

Terminal output:

$ ./nuclei -tp test-profile.yaml -validate
[INF] All templates validated successfully

Feature 2: Inline Target Lists Work

Embedded targets in profile:

list: |
  example.com
  test.com
  scan.me

Terminal output:

$ ./nuclei -tp test-inline-targets.yaml -validate
[INF] All templates validated successfully

Feature 3: Inline Secrets Work

Embedded secrets in profile:

secrets:
  static:
    - type: header
      domains:
        - example.com
      headers:
        - key: X-API-Key
          value: test-key-123

Terminal output:

$ ./nuclei -tp test-all-features.yaml -validate
[INF] All templates validated successfully

Complete Test Profile

All 3 features working together - see detailed proof in comments.
