Update deployment docs, complete Deployment Strategy epic

Rewrite DEPLOYMENT.md to reflect current state (CI/CD, backups, merge
strategy). Expand CI paths-ignore to skip docs, license, gitignore,
and deploy workflow changes. Add merge strategy to CLAUDE.md.

 - [x] **Set up branching structure** — create `develop` branch from `main`, establish the `main`/`develop`/`feature/*` workflow
 - [x] **Update CLAUDE.md with branching rules** — once the branching structure is in place, add instructions to CLAUDE.md that the branching strategy must be adhered to (always work on feature branches, never commit directly to `main`, merge flow is `feature/*` → `develop` → `main`)

 - [x] **Create production docker-compose file** (`docker-compose.prod.yml`) — uses images from the Gitea container registry, production env vars, no source volume mounts, proper restart policies
 - [x] **Create production Dockerfiles (or multi-stage builds)** — ensure frontend is built and served statically (e.g., via the API or a lightweight nginx container), API runs without debug mode
 - [x] **Create deploy script** — `./deploy.sh` builds images (podman/docker, linux/amd64), pushes to Gitea registry, SCPs compose file, generates `.env` if needed, pulls and starts containers via SSH
 - [x] **Configure Nginx Proxy Manager** — add proxy host entries for Gitea and the nuzlocke-tracker frontend/API on the appropriate ports
 - [x] **Environment & secrets management** — deploy script auto-generates `.env` with `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` on Unraid if missing; file lives at `/mnt/user/appdata/nuzlocke-tracker/.env`

 - [x] **Create CI workflow** (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`) — on push to `develop` and PRs: run `ruff check` + `ruff format --check` for backend, `eslint` + `tsc` for frontend. Tests can be added later when they exist.
 - [x] **Create deploy workflow** (`.github/workflows/deploy.yml`) — triggered via `workflow_dispatch` on `main`: build Docker images (linux/amd64), push to the Gitea container registry, deploy to Unraid via SSH (`docker compose pull && docker compose up -d`)
