Ryan Parmeter e6e1ef2144 refactor: Complete simplification - require all binary paths explicitly ...

BREAKING CHANGE: All binary paths must now be explicitly configured.

Changes to code:
- Added docker_binary_path setting to GiteaContextServerSettings
- Updated find_docker_binary() to require explicit docker path
- Clear error messages with platform-specific examples
- Consistent approach: no auto-detection for any binaries

Changes to documentation:
- Updated README.md with docker_binary_path requirement
- Rewrote default_settings.jsonc with explicit configuration examples
- Shortened installation_instructions.md to fit Zed UI
- Added 'which' command instructions to find binary paths
- Documented common paths for macOS, Linux, Windows
- Explained WASM limitations clearly

Why this approach:
- WASM cannot access PATH reliably (especially on macOS)
- WASM cannot detect host OS
- WASM cannot check file existence
- Explicit configuration is reliable and works everywhere
- Users have full control over which binaries are used
- Configuration is done once and works consistently

This completes the simplification:
✅ No auto-detection attempts
✅ Clear, actionable error messages
✅ Comprehensive documentation
✅ Works reliably on Linux, macOS, and Windows
✅ Tested on Linux x86_64 and macOS M4
