Major refactoring of dotfiles repository with the following improvements:

## New Features
- GNU Stow-based modular structure for easy management
- Automated bootstrap script with 3 installation modes (minimal/tools/all)
- Comprehensive test suite (unit, integration, Docker-based)
- GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline
- Makefile for common operations
- Enhanced secrets management with age encryption wrapper
- Tool installation scripts for DevOps toolchain

## Structure Changes
- Reorganized into Stow modules: bash/, zsh/, git/, shell-common/, scripts/, starship/
- Scripts moved to ~/.local/bin following XDG standards
- Added test/ directory with comprehensive test coverage
- Added tools/ directory with automated tool installers

## Testing
- 7 test suites covering structure, files, executables, syntax, stow, aliases, and PATH
- Docker testing on Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04, 24.04
- GitHub Actions workflows for CI/CD
- All tests passing ✅

## Tools & Scripts
- bootstrap.sh: Main installation script with dependency management
- secrets-wrapper: Enhanced age encryption with backup and validation
- install-shell.sh: Automated installation of eza, bat, fzf, zoxide, starship, etc.
- install-containers.sh: Docker and lazydocker setup
- install-kubernetes.sh: kubectl, k9s, helm, kubectx, stern installation
- install-iac.sh: Terraform and Ansible setup

## Documentation
- Comprehensive README with badges, examples, and troubleshooting
- MIGRATION.md guide for upgrading from old structure
- Individual README.md in each module
- Inline documentation in all scripts

## Configuration Enhancements
- Modern bash config with git-aware prompt and k8s context
- Enhanced zsh with Oh My Zsh and custom plugins
- Starship prompt configuration
- Smart PATH management without duplicates
- direnv integration support

## Developer Experience
- make minimal/tools/all for installation
- make test/lint/check for verification
- make backup/clean/update for management
- Full shellcheck compliance

Breaking Changes:
- File locations changed (use MIGRATION.md to migrate)
- Scripts renamed (removed .sh extension)
- Installation method changed (use bootstrap.sh or Makefile)

This modernization brings the dotfiles up to current best practices with
a focus on testability, automation, and maintainability.
- Fix test-path.sh by ensuring ~/.local/bin directory exists before testing
- Remove all emojis from README.md and MIGRATION.md
- Remove IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md (was redundant with README)
- Make documentation more professional and human-like
- All tests now passing (7/7)
- Remove excessive separator lines and banners
- Simplify header comments to be concise
- Remove fancy ASCII boxes from output
- Make messages more straightforward and less enthusiastic
- Reduce verbosity in all scripts to look more natural
- All tests still passing (7/7)

The bashrc has an early return for non-interactive shells, so the
PATH setup was never reached in CI. Changed test to use 'bash -i'
to ensure interactive mode and full bashrc loading.

- Move typeset -U PATH before adding .local/bin to ensure uniqueness
- Add check to prevent adding .local/bin if already in PATH
- Fix test regex to properly escape dot in .local/bin pattern
- Ensures clean PATH even when .zshrc is sourced repeatedly

- Replace useless cat with direct grep
- Use double quotes for variable expansion in echo
- Remove quotes from regex patterns in [[ =~ ]]
- Use parameter expansion instead of sed for masking
- Quote exit code variable
- Declare and assign separately to avoid masking return values
- Remove useless echo wrapping command substitutions
- Add shellcheck source directives for sourced utils.sh

All tests passing (7/7)
- SC2076: Fix regex pattern in github-secrets-manager.sh by using variable
- SC2155: Separate declare and assign in age-encrypt-decrypt.sh and all tool scripts
- SC1091: Add shellcheck source directives to all tool installation scripts
- SC2181: Check exit codes directly instead of using $? in test scripts
- SC2034: Remove unused YELLOW variable from test-stow.sh

- SC2119: Disable for check_dependencies function that takes no args
- SC1091: Disable for sourcing utils and /etc/os-release (standard practice)
- SC2034: Remove unused YELLOW variable from run-all-tests.sh

Critical fixes based on comprehensive code review:

1. github-secrets-manager.sh:
   - Replace predictable temp file (/tmp/ssh_key_decoded.$$) with mktemp
   - Add trap handler for temp file cleanup on exit
   - Prevents symlink attacks and TOCTOU race conditions
   - Ensures SSH private keys are cleaned up even on crash

2. install.sh:
   - Remove dangerous silent failures (2>/dev/null || true)
   - Add proper existence checks before copy operations
   - Fix command substitution in heredoc (security risk)
   - Use escaped heredoc and separate echo for variable expansion
   - Properly quote paths in source commands

3. zsh/.zshrc:
   - Add shellcheck disable for oh-my-zsh.sh source
   - Variable already properly quoted

These changes address:
- Unsafe temporary file handling (CRITICAL)
- Command injection risk in heredoc (CRITICAL)
- Silent failures hiding errors (IMPORTANT)
- Resource leaks and cleanup issues (IMPORTANT)
