docs: improve documentation across WebPushService class

Comprehensive documentation update focusing on clarity and completeness while
maintaining technical accuracy. Key improvements include:

- Add detailed module-level documentation with features and dependencies
- Enhance class-level documentation with responsibilities and endpoints
- Improve method documentation with:
  - Clear workflow descriptions
  - Technical implementation details
  - Security considerations
  - Database impacts
  - Error handling specifics
  - Usage examples
  - Return type clarification
  - Thread safety notes

Technical Changes:
- Replace print statements with structured logging using structlog
- Add specific error handling for SQLAlchemy and cryptography exceptions
- Add type hints and improve return type annotations

Security:
- Document authentication requirements
- Add security considerations sections
- Clarify VAPID key handling
- Document input validation

Dependencies:
- Add structlog>=24.1.0 to requirements.txt

This improves code maintainability and helps future developers understand
the system's security and operational characteristics.

+# Security Audit Checklist for Web Push Service
+
+## Authentication & Authorization
+- [x] Basic auth implemented for admin endpoints
+- [x] VAPID authentication for push notifications
+- [x] Environment variable for admin password
+- [ ] Consider rate limiting for subscription endpoints
+- [ ] Consider adding API key authentication for public endpoints
+
+## Data Validation
+- [x] Input validation for subscription data
+- [x] Message size limits (100 chars)
+- [x] Notification type validation
+- [ ] Consider adding input sanitization for messages
+
+## Database Security
+- [x] SQLite database with configurable path
+- [x] No raw SQL queries (uses SQLAlchemy ORM)
+- [ ] Consider adding database connection pooling
+- [ ] Consider encryption at rest for sensitive data
+
+## Push Notification Security
+- [x] VAPID key rotation capability
+- [x] Secure key generation using cryptography library
+- [x] Proper error handling for expired subscriptions
+- [ ] Consider adding payload encryption
+
+## General Security
+- [x] Type hints for better code safety
+- [x] Error logging implemented
+- [ ] Consider adding request logging
+- [ ] Consider adding CORS protection
+- [ ] Consider adding CSP headers
