Add telemetry and observability to daemon (bd-153)

Implement comprehensive metrics collection for the daemon with zero-overhead design: Features: - Request metrics: counts, latency percentiles (p50, p95, p99), error rates - Cache metrics: hit/miss ratios, eviction counts, database connections - Connection metrics: total, active, rejected connections - System metrics: memory usage, goroutine count, uptime Implementation: - New internal/rpc/metrics.go with Metrics collector - OpMetrics RPC operation for programmatic access - 'bd daemon --metrics' command (human-readable and JSON output) - Lock-free atomic operations for cache/connection metrics - Copy-and-compute pattern in Snapshot to minimize lock contention - Deferred metrics recording ensures all requests are tracked Improvements from code review: - JSON types use float64 for ms/seconds (not time.Duration) - Snapshot copies data under short lock, computes outside - Union of operations from counts and errors maps - Defensive clamping in percentile calculation - Defer pattern ensures metrics recorded even on early returns Documentation updated in README.md with usage examples.

+Metrics include:

+- **Cache metrics**: Hit/miss ratios, eviction counts, active database connections
+- **Connection metrics**: Total connections, active connections, rejected connections
+- **System metrics**: Memory usage, goroutine count, uptime

+All metrics are collected with zero overhead using lock-free atomic operations and efficient ring buffers for latency tracking.
