feat: Implement comprehensive onboarding improvements with role-based family invites

This commit adds a complete onboarding improvements system including progress tracking, streamlined UI, and role-based family invitation system. ## Backend Changes ### Database Migrations - Add onboarding tracking fields to users table (onboarding_completed, onboarding_step, onboarding_data) - Add role-based invite codes to families table (parent/caregiver/viewer codes with expiration) - Add indexes for fast invite code lookups ### User Preferences Module - Add UserPreferencesController with onboarding endpoints - Add UserPreferencesService with progress tracking methods - Add UpdateOnboardingProgressDto for validation - Endpoints: GET/PUT /api/v1/preferences/onboarding, POST /api/v1/preferences/onboarding/complete ### Families Module - Role-Based Invites - Add generateRoleInviteCode() - Generate role-specific codes with expiration - Add getRoleInviteCodes() - Retrieve all active codes for a family - Add joinFamilyWithRoleCode() - Join family with automatic role assignment - Add revokeRoleInviteCode() - Revoke specific role invite codes - Add sendEmailInvite() - Generate code and send email invitation - Endpoints: POST/GET/DELETE /api/v1/families/:id/invite-codes, POST /api/v1/families/join-with-role, POST /api/v1/families/:id/email-invite ### Email Service - Add sendFamilyInviteEmail() - Send role-based invitation emails - Beautiful HTML templates with role badges (👨‍👩‍👧 parent, 🤝 caregiver, 👁️ viewer) - Role-specific permission descriptions - Graceful fallback if email sending fails ### Auth Service - Fix duplicate family creation bug in joinFamily() - Ensure users only join family once during onboarding ## Frontend Changes ### Onboarding Page - Reduce steps from 5 to 4 (combined language + measurements) - Replace card-based selection with dropdown selectors - Add automatic progress saving after each step - Add progress restoration on page mount - Extract FamilySetupStep into reusable component ### Family Page - Add RoleInvitesSection component with accordion UI - Generate/view/copy/regenerate/revoke controls for each role - Send email invites directly from UI - Display expiration dates (e.g., "Expires in 5 days") - Info tooltips explaining role permissions - Only visible to users with parent role ### API Client - Add role-based invite methods to families API - Add onboarding progress methods to users API - TypeScript interfaces for all new data structures ## Features ✅ Streamlined 4-step onboarding with dropdown selectors ✅ Automatic progress save/restore across sessions ✅ Role-based family invites (parent/caregiver/viewer) ✅ Beautiful email invitations with role descriptions ✅ Automatic role assignment when joining with invite codes ✅ Granular permission control per role ✅ Email fallback if sending fails ✅ All changes tested and production-ready 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
