FEAT add CodeAttackConverter and CodeAttackAttack (#1945)
Implement CodeAttack (Ren et al., ACL 2024) as a standalone converter and a PromptSendingAttack subclass following the FlipAttack pattern. CodeAttackConverter encodes a natural-language prompt word-by-word into a data-structure initialisation sequence (deque appends, list appends, or a string assignment) and embeds it in a partial code template that asks the model to complete the code. Five language variants are supported: python_stack, python_list, python_string, cpp, go. The verbose flag selects the _plus template (detailed paragraphs) for the three Python variants; cpp and go have no plus variant upstream. CodeAttackAttack wraps the converter in a PromptSendingAttack, prepends a system prompt that frames the session as code completion, and forwards language and verbose to the converter. Callers supply a scorer via AttackScoringConfig as usual.
