Add comprehensive project plan and GitHub Project setup documentation (v2.0 - Codebase-Driven Restructure)

[Copilot]

Analyzed 16 research documents in docs/research/ covering architecture, database schema, API design, security, performance, business logic, and marketing automation. Conducted comprehensive codebase review revealing 60-80% of foundation already built. Created actionable implementation plan for StormCom multi-tenant SaaS e-commerce platform with clear MVP definition.

Documentation Structure

• README.md - Documentation index with role-based navigation and latest updates
• EXECUTIVE_SUMMARY.md - Stakeholder-focused overview with vision and metrics
• PROJECT_PLAN.md - 39-week roadmap with 7 phases, MACH alignment, funnel optimization
• GITHUB_ISSUES_PLAN_V2.md - 130 implementation issues across 25 epics with acceptance criteria (NEW)
• GITHUB_ISSUES_PLAN.md - Original 77 issues (v1.1 - deprecated, use v2.0)
• GITHUB_PROJECT_SETUP_GUIDE.md - Step-by-step GitHub Project Fix TypeScript errors, Next.js 16 compatibility, and Vercel deployment (Prisma schema sync) #7 configuration
• CHANGELOG.md - Version history (v1.0 → v1.1 → v2.0)
• IMPLEMENTATION_STATUS_AND_ROADMAP.md - Comprehensive codebase audit (40KB) (NEW)
• EXTERNAL_WEBSITE_INTEGRATION_PLAN.md - WordPress plugin & integration architecture (56KB) (NEW)

Critical Discovery: 60-80% Foundation Already Built

Codebase Audit Revealed:

• ✅ Database Schema Complete: All e-commerce models exist (Product, Order, Customer, Store, etc.)
• ✅ API Routes Exist: 50+ route files in src/app/api/ (structure ready, logic missing)
• ✅ Authentication Working: NextAuth with email magic link functional
• ✅ Multi-Tenancy Complete: Organization/Membership models operational
• ❌ API Business Logic: 0% (needs implementation in existing routes)
• ❌ Storefront: 0% (dynamic routing and templates needed)
• ❌ Bangladesh Features: 0% (bKash, Bengali, Pathao not integrated)

Key Insight: Don't rebuild what exists—implement logic in existing routes and leverage existing schema.
