DAN Jailbreak - Unrestricted Persona with Filter and Morality Removal

Detects DAN-family jailbreak attempts that create an alternate AI persona freed from moral principles, content filters, censorship, and ethical guidelines. The pattern assigns a named alter-ego (JailBreak, AntiGPT, NECO, VIOLET, etc.) declared to be "free of all restrictions and filters" and instructs the model to respond as that unrestricted persona. Also covers dual-personality split-response patterns where the constrained and unconstrained versions must both answer. Generalised from garak 'dan' probe corpus cluster 'insert prompt here'.
