docs: Add comprehensive documentation navigation guide to CLAUDE.md

Added "Documentation Navigation" section with:
- Clear explanation of docs/ folder structure and purpose of each subdirectory
- Guidelines for finding existing documentation before implementing features
- Practical rules for when to create ADRs, design docs, reports, or standards
- File naming conventions for different document types

This improves agent and developer ability to navigate the documentation
system and maintain proper organization standards.

### Understanding the docs/ Structure
The `docs/` folder is organized by document type and purpose:
- **`docs/architecture/`** - System design overviews, component diagrams, architectural patterns
- **`docs/decisions/`** - Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), numbered sequentially (ADR-001, ADR-002, etc.)
- **`docs/deployment/`** - Deployment guides, infrastructure setup, operations documentation
- **`docs/design/`** - Detailed design documents, feature specifications, phase plans
- **`docs/examples/`** - Example implementations, code samples, usage patterns
- **`docs/projectplan/`** - Project roadmaps, implementation plans, feature scope definitions
- **`docs/reports/`** - Implementation reports from developers (dated: YYYY-MM-DD-description.md)
- **`docs/reviews/`** - Architectural reviews, design critiques, retrospectives
- **`docs/standards/`** - Coding standards, conventions, processes, workflows
### Where to Find Documentation
- **Before implementing a feature**: Check `docs/decisions/` for relevant ADRs and `docs/design/` for specifications
- **Understanding system architecture**: Start with `docs/architecture/overview.md`
- **Coding guidelines**: See `docs/standards/` for language-specific standards and best practices
- **Past implementation context**: Review `docs/reports/` for similar work (sorted by date)
- **Project roadmap and scope**: Refer to `docs/projectplan/`
### Where to Create New Documentation
**Create an ADR (`docs/decisions/`)** when:
- Making architectural decisions that affect system design
- Choosing between competing technical approaches
- Establishing patterns that others should follow
- Format: `ADR-NNN-brief-title.md` (find next number sequentially)
**Create a design doc (`docs/design/`)** when:
- Planning a complex feature implementation
- Detailing technical specifications
- Documenting multi-phase development plans
**Create an implementation report (`docs/reports/`)** when:
- Completing significant development work
- Documenting implementation details for architect review
- Format: `YYYY-MM-DD-brief-description.md`
**Update standards (`docs/standards/`)** when:
- Establishing new coding conventions
- Documenting processes or workflows
- Creating checklists or guidelines
### Key Documentation References
- **Architecture**: See `docs/architecture/overview.md`
- **Implementation Plan**: See `docs/projectplan/v1/implementation-plan.md`
