feat: implement comprehensive testing framework and regression suite

- Established a centralized test specification in docs/tests.md that defines test categories, cases, and a coverage checklist to ensure consistent quality and maintainability across the project.

- Implemented RegressionTestExecutor for managing automated regression tests on a live Zabbix system.

- Updated GraphQL schema and resolvers with a generic runAllRegressionTests mutation.

- Enhanced MCP integration with new operation files and detailed documentation for AI-driven automation.

- Updated README.md and How-To guides (Cookbook, Maintenance, MCP) to reflect the new testing framework and MCP capabilities.

- Verified all changes with a full Jest suite (74 tests) and live end-to-end smoketests.

# Test Specification
This document outlines the test cases and coverage for the Zabbix GraphQL API.
## 📂 Test Categories
- **Unit Tests**: Verify individual functions, classes, or logic in isolation. All external dependencies (Zabbix API, Config) are mocked to ensure the test is fast and deterministic. These tests are executed on each build.
- *Reference*: `src/test/host_importer.test.ts`, `src/test/template_query.test.ts`
- **Integration Tests**: Test the interaction between multiple internal components. Typically, these tests use a mock Apollo Server to execute actual GraphQL operations against the resolvers and data sources, with the Zabbix API mocked at the network layer. These tests are executed on each build.
- *Reference*: `src/test/host_integration.test.ts`, `src/test/user_rights_integration.test.ts`
- **End-to-End (E2E) Tests**: Validate complete, multi-step business workflows from start to finish (e.g., a full import-verify-cleanup cycle). These tests are executed against a real, running Zabbix instance to ensure the entire system achieves the desired business outcome. These tests are triggered after startup or on demand via GraphQL/MCP endpoints.
- *Reference*: `mcp/operations/runSmoketest.graphql` (executed via MCP)

- **TC-E2E-02**: Run all regression tests to verify critical system behavior and prevent known issues.
#### Currently Contained Regression Tests
The `runAllRegressionTests` mutation (TC-E2E-02) executes the following checks:
- **Host without items**: Verifies that hosts created without any items or linked templates can be successfully queried by the system. This ensures that the hierarchical mapping and resolvers handle empty item lists gracefully.

As per project guidelines, every new feature or bug fix must be accompanied by a described test case in this specification.
- **Feature**: A new feature must have a corresponding test case (TC) defined before implementation.
- **Bug Fix**: A bug fix must include a reproduction test case that fails without the fix and passes with it.
- **Documentation**: The `docs/tests.md` file must be updated to reflect any changes in test coverage.
- **Categorization**: Tests must be categorized as Unit, Integration, or End-to-End (E2E).
