Add Lambda debug mode, hot reload, bucket rename, and VS Code config

- Rename S3 website bucket from orders-ui to app (simpler entrypoint URL)
- Add .localstack/lambda_debug_mode.yaml for order-handler debug on port 19891
- Add debug-start Makefile target (LAMBDA_DEBUG_MODE_CONFIG_PATH + port mapping)
- Add hot-reload / hot-reload-off Makefile targets (s3://hot-reload bucket)
- Update .vscode/launch.json to debugpy remote attach config (port 19891, /var/task)
- Add .vscode/extensions.json with recommended extensions
- Add ms-python.python to devcontainer extensions
- Move LAMBDA_DOCKER_FLAGS, LOCALSTACK_APPINSPECTOR_* into devcontainer remoteEnv
