CRITICAL FIXES:
- DatabaseSeeder now calls RolePermissionSeeder to create roles, permissions, and admin user
- setup.sh and setup.bat now run db:seed automatically during setup
- Created PRODUCTION_DEPLOYMENT.md with complete production deployment guide
- Removed duplicate admin user creation from setup scripts
This ensures:
- Admin user (admin@example.com / password) is created automatically
- Roles (admin, editor, viewer) are created during setup
- Permissions are seeded properly
- Production deployments have clear step-by-step instructions
- PHP Redis extension installation documented
- All common deployment issues addressed
The 2-minute setup now truly works out of the box.

- Update User model with HasRoles and HasApiTokens traits
- Configure Redis cache and OPcache for performance
- Add RolePermissionSeeder with pre-configured roles and permissions
