Add documentation and code examples explaining MongoDB lookup patterns for performance optimization.

This PR provides a text-based ASCII diagram (mongodb_lookup_patterns_diagram.txt) and JavaScript code examples (mongodb_patterns_code_examples.js) to illustrate the significant performance benefits of driver-side reference resolution (Pattern 2) over MongoDB's $lookup aggregation (Pattern 1) when querying large source collections that reference a small number of documents in another collection. The text-based diagram was created due to environment limitations preventing graphical output.
