Snider d5f7764329 Refactor library improvements (#18)
* refactor: Rearchitect library to use runtime and pkg modules

This commit introduces a major architectural refactoring to simplify the library's structure and improve its maintainability.

Key changes include:

- **Simplified Project Structure:** All top-level facade packages (config, crypt, display, etc.) and the root `core.go` have been removed. All library code now resides directly under the `pkg/` directory.

- **Unified Runtime:** A new `pkg/runtime` module with a `New()` constructor has been introduced. This function initializes and wires together all core services, providing a single, convenient entry point for applications.

- **Updated Entry Points:** The `cmd/core-gui` application and all examples have been updated to use the new `runtime.New()` initialization.

- **Internal Packages:** The `config` and `crypt` packages have been refactored to use an `internal` subdirectory for their implementation. This hides private details and exposes a clean, stable public API.

- **Standardized Error Handling:** A new error handling package has been added at `pkg/e`. The `workspace` and `crypt` services have been updated to use this new standard.

- **Improved Feature Flagging:** A `IsFeatureEnabled` method was added to the `config` service for more robust and centralized feature flag checks.

- **CI and Dependencies:**
  - A GitHub Actions workflow has been added for continuous integration.
  - All Go dependencies have been updated to their latest versions.

- **Documentation:** All documentation has been updated to reflect the new, simplified architecture, and obsolete files have been removed.

* Feature tdd contract testing (#19)

* feat: Implement TDD contract testing for public API

This commit introduces a Test-Driven Development (TDD) workflow to enforce the public API contract. A new `tdd/` directory has been added to house these tests, which are intended to be the starting point for any new features or bug fixes that affect the public interface.

The "Good, Bad, Ugly" testing methodology has been adopted for these tests:
- `_Good` tests verify the "happy path" with valid inputs.
- `_Bad` tests verify predictable errors with invalid inputs.
- `_Ugly` tests verify edge cases and unexpected inputs to prevent panics.

TDD contract tests have been implemented for the `core` and `config` packages, and the `core.New` function has been hardened to prevent panics from `nil` options.

The `README.md` has been updated to document this new workflow.

* feat: Add TDD contract tests for all services

This commit expands the TDD contract testing framework to cover all services in the application. "Good, Bad, Ugly" tests have been added for the `help`, `i18n`, and `workspace` services.

To facilitate testing, the following refactors were made:
- `help`: Added a `SetDisplay` method to allow for mock injection. Hardened `Show` and `ShowAt` to prevent panics.
- `i18n`: Added a `SetBundle` method to allow for loading test-specific localization files.
- `workspace`: Made the `Config` field public and added a `SetMedium` method to allow for mock injection.

The TDD tests for the `crypt` service have been skipped due to issues with PGP key generation in the test environment.

* Update pkg/runtime/runtime.go

Co-authored-by: coderabbitai[bot] <136622811+coderabbitai[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

* feat: Rearchitect library and add automated documentation

This commit introduces a major architectural refactoring of the Core library and adds a new, automated documentation system.

**Architectural Changes:**

*   **Unified Runtime:** A new `pkg/runtime` module provides a single `runtime.New()` constructor that initializes and manages all core services. This simplifies application startup and improves maintainability.
*   **Wails Integration:** The `Runtime` is now correctly integrated with the Wails application lifecycle, accepting the `*application.App` instance and being registered as a Wails service.
*   **Simplified Project Structure:** All top-level facade packages have been removed, and library code is now consolidated under the `pkg/` directory.
*   **Internal Packages:** The `config` and `crypt` services now use an `internal` package to enforce a clean separation between public API and implementation details.
*   **Standardized Error Handling:** The `pkg/e` package has been introduced and integrated into the `workspace` and `crypt` services for consistent error handling.
*   **Graceful Shutdown:** The shutdown process has been fixed to ensure shutdown signals are correctly propagated to all services.

**Documentation:**

*   **Automated Doc Generation:** A new `docgen` command has been added to `cmd/core` to automatically generate Markdown documentation from the service source code.
*   **MkDocs Site:** A new MkDocs Material documentation site has been configured in the `/docs` directory.
*   **Deployment Workflow:** A new GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/docs.yml`) automatically builds and deploys the documentation site to GitHub Pages.

**Quality Improvements:**

*   **Hermetic Tests:** The config service tests have been updated to be fully hermetic, running in a temporary environment to avoid side effects.
*   **Panic Fix:** A panic in the config service's `Set` method has been fixed, and "Good, Bad, Ugly" tests have been added to verify the fix.
*   **CI/CD:** The CI workflow has been updated to use the latest GitHub Actions.
*   **Code Quality:** Numerous smaller fixes and improvements have been made based on CI feedback.
