feat(v3): add server mode for headless HTTP deployment (#4903)
* feat(v3): add server mode for headless HTTP deployment

Server mode allows Wails applications to run as pure HTTP servers
without native GUI dependencies. Enable with `-tags server` build tag.

Features:
- HTTP server with configurable host/port via ServerOptions
- WAILS_SERVER_HOST and WAILS_SERVER_PORT env var overrides
- WebSocket event broadcasting to connected browsers
- Browser clients represented as BrowserWindow (Window interface)
- Health check endpoint at /health
- Graceful shutdown with configurable timeout
- Docker support with Dockerfile.server template and tasks

Build and run:
  wails3 task build:server
  wails3 task run:server
  wails3 task build:docker
  wails3 task run:docker
