refactor: move modules under app/ directory and update file paths (#3938)

# Description of Changes

- **What was changed:**  
- Renamed top-level directories: `stirling-pdf` → `app/core`, `common` →
`app/common`, `proprietary` → `app/proprietary`.
- Updated all path references in `.gitattributes`, GitHub workflows
(`.github/workflows/*`), scripts (`.github/scripts/*`), `.gitignore`,
Dockerfiles, license files, and template settings to reflect the new
structure.
- Added a new CI job `check-generateOpenApiDocs` to generate and upload
OpenAPI documentation.
- Removed redundant `@Autowired` annotations from `TempFileShutdownHook`
and `UnlockPDFFormsController`.
- Minor formatting and comment adjustments in YAML templates and
resource files.

- **Why the change was made:**  
- To introduce a clear `app/` directory hierarchy for core, common, and
proprietary modules, improving organization and maintainability.
- To ensure continuous integration and Docker builds continue to work
seamlessly with the reorganized structure.
- To automate OpenAPI documentation generation as part of the CI
pipeline.

### Thymeleaf overview
In Stirling-PDF, Thymeleaf is used to create HTML templates that are rendered on the server side. These templates are located in the `stirling-pdf/src/main/resources/templates` directory. Thymeleaf templates use a combination of HTML and special Thymeleaf attributes to dynamically generate content.
