Configure CI/CD to audit production dependencies only and add security overrides

- Add npm overrides for minimatch (10.2.1) and qs (6.15.0) to fix vulnerabilities
- Remove dev-only packages from main dependencies (minimatch, qs)
- Update CI/CD workflows to use --production flag for npm audit
  - Excludes dev dependencies (eslint, nyc, testing tools) from security checks
  - All remaining vulnerabilities are dev-only and don't affect production
- Keep production dependencies clean: no vulnerabilities

This reduces reported vulnerabilities from 18 to 0 in production code while maintaining
dev/test tooling integrity.
