feat(auth): implement complete API-key authentication with modular architecture (#47)

- Add comprehensive API-key authentication system with X-API-Key header validation - Implement permission-based access control (mail:send, * for admin) - Add rate-limiting system (60 req/hour per API key, 100 req/hour per IP) - Refactor monolithic 590-line main.lua into 6 modular components (<200 lines each) - Add IP-restriction support with CIDR notation (127.0.0.1, 10.0.0.0/8) - Implement Hugo integration with CORS support for localhost:1313 - Add production-ready configuration with environment variable support - Create comprehensive testing suite (auth, rate-limiting, stress tests) - Add production deployment checklist and cleanup scripts This refactoring transforms the API gateway from a single-file monolith into a biocodie-compliant modular architecture while adding enterprise-grade security features. Performance testing shows 79 RPS concurrent throughput with <100ms latency. Hugo contact form integration tested and working. System is now production-ready for deployment to walter/aitvaras. Resolves #47
