No description provided.

Add extensive inline documentation and module-level comments to critical
backend components:

- main.rs: Document server initialization, middleware layers, security
  headers, CORS configuration, and graceful shutdown
- auth.rs: Document JWT authentication, token management, cookie handling,
  and security validations
- csrf.rs: Document CSRF protection implementation including token format,
  validation, and double-submit cookie pattern
- handlers/auth.rs: Document login/logout handlers, rate limiting,
  timing-attack resistance, and security features

All functions now include:
- Purpose and behavior descriptions
- Parameter and return value documentation
- Error conditions and security considerations
- Usage examples where applicable

This documentation improves code maintainability and helps developers
understand the security architecture.
Add extensive documentation to the database module (db.rs):

- Module-level documentation explaining architecture and schema
- Document database configuration (WAL mode, connection pooling, FTS5)
- Document security features (foreign keys, slug validation, bcrypt)
- Document performance optimizations (indexing, connection pooling)
- Add comprehensive documentation for:
  - create_pool(): Database initialization and configuration
  - validate_slug(): URL-safe slug validation with security notes
  - run_migrations(): Schema migrations and data seeding

The documentation explains:
- Database schema and table relationships
- Connection pool configuration and rationale
- Migration process and initial data seeding
- Admin user creation from environment variables
- Full-text search infrastructure with FTS5
- Security measures and validation

This improves understanding of the persistence layer and data management.
Add comprehensive module-level documentation for remaining handler modules:

- handlers/tutorials.rs: Tutorial CRUD operations
  - Document endpoints and validation rules
  - Explain content limits and icon/color whitelisting
  - Note FTS5 search integration and version tracking

- handlers/comments.rs: Comment management
  - Document pagination and author attribution
  - Explain security measures (JWT-based author, CSRF)
  - Note foreign key cascade deletion

- handlers/search.rs: Full-text search
  - Document FTS5-based search functionality
  - Explain query sanitization and token processing
  - Note BM25 ranking algorithm and performance optimizations

This completes the comprehensive documentation of the backend codebase,
covering all major modules from server initialization to data handlers.
