Dries Peeters e4789cc26e feat: Add telemetry and analytics infrastructure with observability stack
Implement comprehensive analytics and monitoring system with PostHog integration,
complete observability stack (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Promtail), and CI/CD
workflows for automated builds.

Features:
- Add PostHog telemetry integration with privacy-focused event tracking
- Implement installation flow for opt-in telemetry configuration
- Add telemetry management UI in admin panel with detailed transparency
- Track key user events across all major features (projects, tasks, timer, etc.)

Infrastructure:
- Set up Prometheus for metrics collection
- Configure Grafana for visualization dashboards
- Integrate Loki and Promtail for log aggregation
- Add separate analytics docker-compose configuration

CI/CD:
- Add GitHub Actions workflows for building and publishing Docker images
- Implement separate dev and production build pipelines
- Configure automated image publishing to registry

Documentation:
- Restructure documentation into organized docs/ directory
- Add comprehensive guides for telemetry, analytics, and local development
- Create transparency documentation for tracked events
- Add CI/CD and build configuration guides

Code improvements:
- Integrate telemetry hooks across all route handlers
- Add feature flags and configuration management
- Refactor test suite for analytics functionality
- Clean up root directory by moving docs and removing test artifacts

Breaking changes:
- Requires new environment variables for PostHog configuration
- Docker compose setup now supports analytics stack
