Add Python web scraper for NJC travel rates with currency extraction

- Implemented Python scraper using BeautifulSoup and pandas to automatically collect travel rates from official NJC website - Added currency extraction from table titles (supports EUR, USD, AUD, CAD, ARS, etc.) - Added country extraction from table titles for international rates - Flatten pandas MultiIndex columns for cleaner data structure - Default to CAD for domestic Canadian sources (accommodations and domestic tables) - Created SQLite database schema (raw_tables, rate_entries, exchange_rates, accommodations) - Successfully scraped 92 tables with 17,205 rate entries covering 25 international cities - Added migration script to convert scraped data to Node.js database format - Updated .gitignore for Python files (.venv/, __pycache__, *.pyc, *.sqlite3) - Fixed city validation and currency conversion in main app - Added comprehensive debug and verification scripts This replaces manual JSON maintenance with automated data collection from official government source.
