Migrate from npm to pnpm package manager

[Copilot]

Overview

This PR migrates the project from npm to pnpm as the package manager. pnpm provides several advantages over npm:

• Disk space efficiency: pnpm uses a content-addressable store to avoid duplicating dependencies
• Fast installation: pnpm is typically faster than npm for both fresh installs and updates
• Strict dependency management: pnpm creates a more accurate dependency structure that prevents accessing undeclared dependencies

Changes

• Removed package-lock.json and added pnpm-lock.yaml
• Updated .npmrc with pnpm-specific configuration while preserving existing settings
• Updated Dockerfiles to install pnpm globally and use pnpm commands instead of npm
• Updated GitHub Actions workflow to set up pnpm and adjust caching strategies
• Updated various scripts and tools to use pnpm instead of npm
• Updated package.json scripts to use pnpm syntax
• Added documentation in README.md about the package manager change

Developer Actions Required

Developers will need to:

1. Install pnpm globally: npm install -g pnpm
2. Use pnpm instead of npm for all package management operations
3. Run pnpm install after pulling this change

Testing Done

• Generated pnpm-lock.yaml with all dependencies
• Verified that scripts and references to npm are updated throughout the codebase
• Updated CI workflows to use pnpm-compatible syntax and caching strategies
