refactor(deep-crawl): add max_pages limit and improve crawl control
Add max_pages parameter to all deep crawling strategies to limit total pages crawled. Add score_threshold parameter to BFS/DFS strategies for quality control. Remove legacy parameter handling in AsyncWebCrawler. Improve error handling and logging in crawl strategies. BREAKING CHANGE: Removed support for legacy parameters in AsyncWebCrawler.run_many()
