Wei S. 22b173cbe4 Feat: Implement API key authentication (#84)
* feat(auth): Implement API key authentication

This commit enables API access with an API key system. This change provides a better experience for programmatic access and third-party integrations.

Key changes include:
- **API Key Management:** Users can now generate, manage, and revoke persistent API keys through a new "API Keys" section in the settings UI.
- **Authentication Middleware:** API requests are now authenticated via an `X-API-KEY` header instead of the previous `Authorization: Bearer` token.
- **Backend Implementation:** Adds a new `api_keys` database table, along with corresponding services, controllers, and routes to manage the key lifecycle securely.
- **Rate Limiting:** The API rate limiter now uses the API key to identify and track requests.
- **Documentation:** The API authentication documentation has been updated to reflect the new method.

* Add configurable API rate limiting

Two new variables are added to `.env.example`:
- `RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_MS`: The time window in milliseconds for which requests are checked (defaults to 15 minutes).
- `RATE_LIMIT_MAX_REQUESTS`: The maximum number of requests allowed from an IP within the window (defaults to 100).

The installation documentation has been updated to reflect these new configuration options.
