feat: add comprehensive authentication system with JWT and OAuth

Implement a complete authentication system with local email/password
authentication, Google OAuth, JWT tokens, and role-based access control.

Backend Features:
- Database schema with User, RefreshToken, VerificationToken, RecipeShare models
- Role-based access control (USER, ADMIN)
- Recipe visibility controls (PRIVATE, SHARED, PUBLIC)
- Email verification for local accounts
- Password reset functionality
- JWT access tokens (15min) and refresh tokens (7 days)
- Passport.js strategies: Local, JWT, Google OAuth
- bcrypt password hashing with 12 salt rounds
- Password strength validation (min 8 chars, uppercase, lowercase, number)
- Rate limiting on auth endpoints (5 attempts/15min)
- Email service with styled HTML templates for verification and password reset

API Endpoints:
- POST /api/auth/register - Register with email/password
- POST /api/auth/login - Login and get tokens
- POST /api/auth/logout - Invalidate refresh token
- POST /api/auth/refresh - Get new access token
- GET /api/auth/verify-email/:token - Verify email address
- POST /api/auth/resend-verification - Resend verification email
- POST /api/auth/forgot-password - Request password reset
- POST /api/auth/reset-password - Reset password with token
- GET /api/auth/google - Initiate Google OAuth
- GET /api/auth/google/callback - Google OAuth callback
- GET /api/auth/me - Get current user info

Security Middleware:
- requireAuth - Protect routes requiring authentication
- requireAdmin - Admin-only route protection
- optionalAuth - Routes that work with or without auth
- requireOwnership - Check resource ownership

Admin Tools:
- npm run create-admin - Interactive script to create admin users
- verify-user-manual.ts - Helper script for testing

Test Coverage:
- 49 unit and integration tests (all passing)
- Password utility tests (12 tests)
- JWT utility tests (17 tests)
- Auth middleware tests (12 tests)
- Auth routes integration tests (8 tests)

Dependencies Added:
- passport, passport-local, passport-jwt, passport-google-oauth20
- bcrypt, jsonwebtoken
- nodemailer
- express-rate-limit, express-validator, cookie-parser

Environment Variables Required:
- JWT_SECRET, JWT_REFRESH_SECRET
- JWT_EXPIRES_IN, JWT_REFRESH_EXPIRES_IN
- GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID, GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET (optional)
- SMTP configuration for email
- APP_URL, API_URL
