Dries Peeters 90dde470da style: standardize code formatting and normalize line endings
- Normalize line endings from CRLF to LF across all files to match .editorconfig
- Standardize quote style from single quotes to double quotes
- Normalize whitespace and formatting throughout codebase
- Apply consistent code style across 372 files including:
  * Application code (models, routes, services, utils)
  * Test files
  * Configuration files
  * CI/CD workflows

This ensures consistency with the project's .editorconfig settings and
improves code maintainability.
