Christian Krakau-Louis d79652b494 feat: Add authentication configuration and validation
- Introduced new authentication settings in config.py including `auth_enabled`, `admin_username`, `admin_password`, and `session_secret`.
- Added validation for `session_secret` to ensure it meets security requirements when authentication is enabled.
- Updated main.py to conditionally mount static files and log warnings if the directory is not found.
- Removed unused email template files and added new authentication and notification setup documentation.
- Implemented authentication configuration validation in validators.py and updated settings display.
- Enhanced the user interface with a new login template and SVG assets for branding.
- Added comprehensive guides for setting up authentication and notifications in the documentation.

# Configuration Guide
DocuElevate is designed to be highly configurable through environment variables. This guide explains all available configuration options and how to use them effectively.
## Environment Variables
Configuration is primarily done through environment variables specified in a `.env` file.
### Core Settings

## Selective Service Configuration
You can choose which document storage services to use by only including the relevant environment variables. For example, if you only want to use Dropbox, include only the Dropbox variables and omit the Paperless NGX and Nextcloud variables.
## Configuration File Location
The `.env` file should be placed at the root of the project directory. When using Docker Compose, you can reference it with the `env_file` directive in your `docker-compose.yml`.
