New intermediate quality config for progressive resolution testing:
- 640x360 resolution (2x upgrade from ultra_fast 180p)
- 12 fps (same as ultra_fast to manage render time)
- 16 samples (low but acceptable)
- Medium quality encoding
- Target: 6-8 minutes total render time

This config bridges the gap between ultra_fast (180p) and quick_test (360p @ 24fps),
allowing quality evaluation without timeout risk.
Added three major documentation files to position project as technical showcase:

1. ARCHITECTURE.md - System design and architecture
   - 4-phase pipeline design with diagrams
   - Component responsibilities and data flow
   - Design decisions and tradeoffs
   - Extension points for customization
   - Performance characteristics
   - Deployment architectures

2. DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md - Practical development guide
   - Step-by-step examples for adding animation modes
   - Adding new effects with code samples
   - Integrating new audio analysis methods
   - API reference for core classes
   - Testing strategies and debugging tips
   - Code style guidelines

3. CASE_STUDIES.md - Real-world applications
   - Cloud headless rendering case study
   - Multi-config rapid prototyping workflow
   - Automated lyrics generation comparison
   - Performance benchmarks (resolution, FPS, samples)
   - Quality vs speed tradeoff analysis
   - Lessons learned and best practices

These documents showcase the project's technical strengths:
- Production-ready architecture
- Extensible design patterns
- Real deployment scenarios
- Comprehensive testing and benchmarks

Positions project as valuable learning resource for:
- Blender automation developers
- Audio-driven animation engineers
- Pipeline architects
- DevOps/cloud deployment engineers
Complete README overhaul to emphasize technical value:

**New Structure:**
- Lead with technical positioning (not just video generation)
- Prominent "Documentation" section linking to all new docs
- Architecture overview diagram
- Performance benchmarks table front and center
- Extension examples showing plugin architecture

**Key Changes:**
- Added "What This Is" section - both tool AND learning resource
- Removed 5x duplicate "Platform Support" sections
- Added badges for Python, Blender, License
- Reorganized: Quick Start → Docs → Architecture → Features
- Added benchmark table (4 min to 50 min for different configs)
- New "Why This Project Exists" explaining technical value
- Added FAQ, Troubleshooting, Contributing sections
- Emphasized configuration-first design throughout

**Links Added:**
- ARCHITECTURE.md (system design)
- DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md (extension tutorials)
- CASE_STUDIES.md (benchmarks, cloud deployment)
- All existing guides (TESTING, POSITIONING, AUTOMATED_LYRICS)

**Target Audience Shift:**
From: End users wanting video tool
To: Developers learning Blender automation + end users

**Result:** GitHub-ready technical showcase demonstrating
production-ready pipeline architecture and extensible design.
