This commit introduces a new architecture document that can be used to guide the high-level design of the system. This also includes C4 diagrams for the context and container level views of the system.

@scotwells Looks great!. There’s some new technology to learn, but the task looks incredibly interesting and challenging. Can’t wait to start working on it 🚀 |

If you are not familiar with the C4 model, I recommend watching this video on visualizing software architecture with C4 to quickly get up to speed on the concept.
I've found C4 to be very useful for visualizing software systems.
I chose to use PlantUML's C4 plugin for rendering the C4 diagrams because it's the most mature option out there. Mermaid supports C4, but it's awful. I considered Structurizr, but it doesn't seem worth it.
I included taskfile commands for generating the C4 diagrams from the plantuml code. I also included a GitHub action workflow for verifying the
task generatecommand does not produce a diff to prevent PRs from being merged until code has been re-generated.@JoseSzycho I'll explicitly wait for your approval on this before merging since you'll be taking lead on implementation.
Closes #3
