Overhaul README to improve developer onboarding and documentation. Adds a Table of Contents, Quick Start (TL;DR + detailed Docker, binary, and build-from-source instructions), verification steps, and a Module Map. Expands Features into bullet points and introduces detailed Architecture sections including ASCII and Mermaid diagrams, a deployment comparison table, and module overview. Adds contributor guidance, community/contact info, and ecosystem links. Also updates .serena/project.yml to set project_name and include placeholders for base/default modes, included optional tools, and fixed_tools to enable per-project Serena configuration.
