Add automated PXE installation via ISO GRUB modification and auto-answer endpoint
build-and-push / test (push) Successful in 35s
build-and-push / build-and-push (push) Successful in 1m20s

Modifies uploaded ISO's GRUB config in-place to set timeout=0 and inject
proxmox-start-auto-installer + answer-url kernel params, enabling fully
hands-off installation. Adds /api/boot/auto-answer endpoint that identifies
hosts by ARP-resolving the requester's IP to MAC address.
