This commit addresses the need for more comprehensive documentation by first conducting an audit to identify gaps and then creating the necessary documentation to fill them. The following files have been added: - `AUDIT-DOCUMENTATION.md`: A detailed audit of the project's documentation, evaluating its completeness and quality. - `ARCHITECTURE.md`: A high-level overview of the project's architecture, including a component diagram. - `docs/FAQ.md`: A frequently asked questions page to help users with common questions. - `docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md`: A guide to help users troubleshoot common issues. These additions will improve the overall quality of the project's documentation, making it more accessible and useful for both new and existing users.

Architecture
This document provides a high-level overview of the Poindexter library's architecture.
System Overview
Poindexter is a Go library that provides a collection of utility functions, with a primary focus on sorting algorithms and a K-D tree implementation for nearest neighbor searches. The library is designed to be modular, with distinct components for different functionalities.
The main components of the Poindexter library are:
- Sorting Utilities: A set of functions for sorting slices of various data types, including integers, strings, and floats. It also provides generic functions for custom sorting.
- K-D Tree: A K-D tree implementation for efficient nearest neighbor searches in a multi-dimensional space.
- WASM Build: A WebAssembly build that allows the K-D tree to be used in browser environments.

Components
- Sorting Utilities: This component contains all the sorting-related functions. It is used by Go applications that need to perform sorting operations.
- K-D Tree: This component provides the K-D tree implementation. It is used by Go applications and is also the core component exposed in the WASM build.
- WASM Build: This component is a wrapper around the K-D tree that compiles it to WebAssembly, allowing it to be used in web browsers.
- Go Application: Any Go application that imports the Poindexter library to use its sorting or K-D tree functionalities.
