Highlight Self-Hosted Deployment

Self-hosted deployment of the open-source Highlight stack. Three tiers — Dev (single-host docker-compose), Hobby (single-host Docker for low-volume production), and Enterprise (Kubernetes with horizontal scaling, ClickHouse cluster, and managed retention). All ingestion endpoints (OTLP traces, logs, metrics; pub.highlight.io session ingestion; pri.highlight.io GraphQL) are reproduced in-cluster.
