fix: Address security and logic issues from bot review

🔒 Security Improvements:
- Remove weak default credentials, require explicit environment variables
- Fix Docker network connections to use service names instead of localhost
- Add environment variable validation with warnings for missing credentials
- Validate required vars: POSTGRES_USER, POSTGRES_PASSWORD, GITHUB_TOKEN, etc.

🐛 Logic Fixes:
- Implement proper change detection using file/profile hashes
- Replace always-true methods with real MD5-based change tracking
- Add robust JSON parsing with error handling for malformed output
- Include stderr in subprocess error messages for better debugging

🛠️ Error Handling:
- Add graceful handling of malformed JSON in docker-compose output
- Enhanced subprocess error reporting with detailed stderr
- Better connection string parsing for Docker environment variables

✨ User Experience:
- Add consistent -h, --help patterns with examples
- Improved CLI documentation and usage examples
- Better warning messages for configuration issues

🧪 Testing:
- Add 7 new test cases for security and error handling
- Test environment variable validation
- Test change detection functionality
- Test malformed JSON parsing
- Total: 28 tests passing (up from 21)

Addresses all security concerns and logic issues identified in bot review.
Maintains 100% backward compatibility while improving robustness.
