BoxLang Prime Support, UI Improvements & Documentation

[lmajano]

This pull request introduces several important updates to the project, focusing on enhanced BoxLang and ColdBox compatibility, improved CI workflows, and expanded documentation and configuration. The main changes include support for newer engine and framework versions, modernization of GitHub Actions, the addition of a BoxLang-focused agent instruction file, and improvements to configuration and code quality enforcement.

BoxLang and ColdBox Compatibility:

• Updated the test matrix in .github/workflows/pr.yml, .github/workflows/cron.yml, and .github/workflows/release.yml to add support for lucee@7, adobe@2023, adobe@2025, boxlang@1, and coldbox@8, while removing older versions. This ensures the module is tested against the latest engines and frameworks. [1] [2] [3]
• Added cbMockData as a dependency in ModuleConfig.cfc to support enhanced testing and seeding features.

CI/CD Workflow Modernization:

• Updated GitHub Actions to use the latest versions of actions/checkout, actions/setup-java, and other actions, and standardized on Java 21 with the Zulu distribution. This improves build reliability and future-proofs the CI pipeline. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

Documentation and Agent Instructions:

• Added a comprehensive AGENTS.md file documenting architecture, code style, BoxLang/CFML dual support, and project-specific agent skills, providing clear guidance for contributors and AI agents.

Configuration and Linting:

• Introduced .bxlint.json to enforce code quality rules for BoxLang/CFML code, enabling checks for duplicate methods/properties, unused code, and other potential issues.
• Added a .env.example file with database configuration variables to simplify local setup and onboarding.
• Updated .cfconfig.json to use the latest PostgreSQL JDBC driver and streamlined configuration, including extension installation.

These changes collectively improve compatibility, developer experience, and code quality across the project.
