Fix GitHub Pages deployment and add Knowledge as Code attribution

Add contents: write permission to the workflow so peaceiris/actions-gh-pages
can push to gh-pages branch. Update README with live examples, pattern
definition, and creator attribution. Add ATTRIBUTION.md. Update footer
link to point to knowledge-as-code.com.

+**[Knowledge as Code](https://knowledge-as-code.com)** is a pattern created by [Sam Rogers](https://sam-rogers.com) at [Snap Synapse](https://snapsynapse.com). It applies software engineering practices to knowledge management: plain text, Git-native, zero-dependency, ontology-driven, multi-output from a single source.

+## The Pattern
+
+Knowledge as Code has six defining properties:
+
+1. **Plain text canonical** — knowledge in human-readable, version-controlled files
+2. **Self-healing** — automated verification detects when knowledge drifts from reality
+3. **Multi-output** — one source produces every format needed (HTML, JSON API, MCP, SEO pages)
+4. **Zero-dependency** — no external packages; nothing breaks when you come back in a year
+5. **Git-native** — Git is the collaboration layer, audit trail, and deployment trigger
+6. **Ontology-driven** — a vendor-neutral taxonomy maps to domain-specific implementations
