Add full custom timeframe selection support

CUSTOM TIMEFRAME FEATURES:
- Superior screenshot API now accepts 'timeframes' array parameter
- Automatically detects custom vs preset timeframe selections
- Maintains superior parallel capture for ANY manual selection
- Full backwards compatibility with existing preset system

API USAGE:
POST /api/superior-screenshot
{
  "timeframes": ["5m", "1h", "1D"],  // Your exact selection
  "symbol": "SOLUSD",
  "layouts": ["ai", "diy"]
}

TESTING TOOLS:
- test-custom-timeframes.js: Logic demonstration
- test-custom-api-practical.js: Real API testing scenarios

ANSWER: YES - Any manual timeframe selection is fully respected!
Whether 1 timeframe or 10, preset or custom - all use parallel capture.
