Ankit Patial 183ad41574 Security fixes and improvements
CRITICAL FIXES:
- jwt: Replace log.Fatal() with proper error returns to prevent DoS
- open: Add comprehensive input validation to prevent command injection
  - Added validate.go for path traversal and URI validation
  - Added platform-specific app name validation (darwin, linux, windows)
  - Linux version verifies apps exist in PATH

HIGH PRIORITY FIXES:
- crypto: Add bounds checking in Decrypt to prevent panic on malformed input
- crypto: Validate encryption key sizes (must be 16, 24, or 32 bytes for AES)
- email: Add security warnings for template injection risks in RenderHTMLTemplate/RenderTxtTemplate

MEDIUM PRIORITY FIXES:
- request: Add configurable request body size limits (1MB default) to prevent DoS
- request: Apply size limits to Payload() and DecodeJSON() functions

LOW PRIORITY FIXES:
- gz: Add defer close for gzip reader to prevent resource leak

IMPROVEMENTS:
- README: Complete rewrite with comprehensive documentation
  - Added installation instructions and usage examples
  - Documented all packages with code samples
  - Added badges, features list, and use cases
  - Included security practices and dependencies

TESTING:
- All existing tests pass
- No breaking changes to public APIs
- All packages build successfully
