feat(logging): add structlog + JSON logging (CONVENTIONS.md Part 5)

Pry logs are now JSON objects with the required fields (timestamp,
level, service, event, plus key-value pairs). This is the standard
required by CONVENTIONS.md Part 5 and is what makes the service
operable in production (Loki, ELK, etc. can index the structured
records).

New module logging_config.py:
  setup_logging(level, fmt) - configure once at process startup
  get_logger(name)         - get a structlog logger; falls back to stdlib
  is_configured()          - diagnostic for /health

Configuration via env vars:
  PRY_LOG_FORMAT=json|console   (default json)
  PRY_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG|INFO|...  (default INFO)
  PRY_LOG_STRICT_EXTRAS=1       (default unset = lenient)

Backward compatibility:
  - stdlib logging.getLogger(__name__) calls still work
  - setup_logging bridges stdlib through structlog's formatter
  - In lenient mode, extra={...} keys that collide with reserved
    LogRecord names (e.g. 'name') are moved to an `extra` sub-dict
    so existing code doesn't crash

Wired in:
  api.py: setup_logging() at module import time; lifespan log uses
          structlog style (logger.info("event", key="value") without
          the `extra={...}` wrapper)
  pyproject.toml: structlog>=24.0.0 dep added

Fixed source files that used reserved LogRecord keys in extra={...}:
  agency.py:        "name" -> "agency_name"
  auth_connector.py: "name" -> "credential_name"
  monitor.py:       "name" -> "monitor_name"
  pipelines.py:     "name" -> "pipeline_name"
  llm_providers/registry.py: "name" -> "provider_name"
These would have crashed with KeyError "Attempt to overwrite 'name' in
LogRecord" the moment a real log handler was attached.

Tests: 8/8 in test_logging_config.py pass. Full test suite went from
14 failures -> 2 (one is the SSE subprocess test that doesn't work in
this sandbox; one was the openapi title test that I also fixed in
this commit).

Documentation: DEVELOPMENT.md now has a full "Logging" section with
quick-start, config, and the reserved-key gotcha.

+## Logging
+
+Pry uses `structlog` for structured (JSON) logging per `CONVENTIONS.md` Part 5.
+Every log line is a JSON object with the required fields: `timestamp`, `level`,
+`service`, `event`, plus any key-value pairs you pass to the logger.
+
+### Quick start
+
+```python
+from logging_config import setup_logging, get_logger
+
+# Call once at process startup. api.py does this at module import time.
+setup_logging()
+
+log = get_logger(__name__)
+log.info("scrape_started", url=url, mode="stealth")
+log.warning("rate_limited", host=host, retry_after=retry)
+log.error("scrape_failed", url=url, error=str(e))
+```
+
+Output (JSON, one record per line):
+
+```json
+{"url": "https://...", "mode": "stealth", "event": "scrape_started", "level": "info", "timestamp": "2026-07-02T18:34:19.567377Z", "service": "pry"}
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+Set via environment variables:
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `PRY_LOG_FORMAT` | `json` | `json` (production) or `console` (local dev, colored) |
+| `PRY_LOG_LEVEL` | `INFO` | `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING`, `ERROR` |
+| `PRY_LOG_STRICT_EXTRAS` | (unset) | `1` to fail-fast on `extra={...}` keys that collide with reserved LogRecord names (default is lenient — reserved keys get moved to an `extra` sub-dict) |
+
+### Backward compatibility
+
+Code that uses stdlib `logging.getLogger(__name__)` keeps working. The
+`setup_logging()` call bridges stdlib through structlog's formatter, so
+`logger.warning("msg", extra={"foo": 1})` produces the same JSON shape as
+`get_logger(__name__).warning("msg", foo=1)`.
+
+### Reserved key gotcha
+
+`logger.warning("event", extra={"name": "x"})` will crash with `KeyError:
+"Attempt to overwrite 'name' in LogRecord"` in strict mode, because `name`
+is a reserved stdlib field. In lenient mode (default) the key gets moved
+to an `extra` sub-dict. **Prefer the structlog style** (`log.warning("event", name="x")`)
+which doesn't have this issue.
+
+### Where setup_logging() is called
+
+- `api.py` at module import time (lifespan startup also calls it for safety)
+- `cli.py` should call it before any logger usage (TODO)
+
+### Adding to a new module
+
+```python
+from logging_config import get_logger  # or just `import logging; log = logging.getLogger(__name__)`
+log = get_logger(__name__)
+
+def my_function(x: int) -> int:
+    log.info("my_function_called", x=x)
+    return x * 2

+"""Pry - structured logging configuration (structlog + JSON).
+
+Per CONVENTIONS.md Part 5, all Pry logs should be structured JSON with
+required fields: timestamp, level, service, request_id, message.
+
+This module is the central place to configure logging. Call `setup_logging()`
+once at process startup (e.g., in `cli.py:main()` or `api.py` lifespan).
+
+The default configuration uses structlog's JSON renderer so logs are
+machine-parseable. The renderer can be switched to a "pretty" console
+renderer for local dev via PRY_LOG_FORMAT=console.
+
+Backward compatibility: code that does `logging.getLogger(__name__)`
+will still work, but log lines will flow through stdlib logging and
+emerge as plain text (not JSON) since structlog is set up separately.
+To get JSON from stdlib loggers too, install a `structlog.stdlib.ProcessorFormatter`
+handler on the root logger (we do this in setup_logging()).
