feat: Extract hardcoded configs to environment variables

- Add environment variable configuration for backend and frontend
- Backend: DB_POOL_SIZE, JWT_EXPIRE_HOURS, timeout configs, directory paths
- Frontend: VITE_API_BASE_URL, VITE_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT, Whisper configs
- Create deployment script (scripts/deploy-backend.sh)
- Create 1Panel deployment guide (docs/1panel-deployment.md)
- Update DEPLOYMENT.md with env var documentation
- Create README.md with project overview
- Remove obsolete PRD.md, SDD.md, TDD.md (replaced by OpenSpec)
- Keep CORS allow_origins=["*"] for Electron EXE distribution
