🐛 fix: emit all config-loading logs in correct JSON format from the start (#16)
## Summary

Closes #15

When `logging.json: true` (or `DLC_LOGGING_JSON=true`), the logger was unconditionally initialised to console/text format at the top of `LoadConfig()`, so early log lines — most visibly **"Config file loaded"** — were always written as human-readable text regardless of configuration.

## Root cause

Classic chicken-and-egg: the format flag lives inside the config that is being loaded. The format-switch block only ran *after* `v.Unmarshal()`, too late for the config-file log.

## Changes

### `pkg/config/config.go`
- Add `peekJSONLogging()`: resolves the JSON flag **before** any log is emitted by (1) checking `DLC_LOGGING_JSON` directly via `os.Getenv`, then (2) doing a minimal throwaway Viper pre-read of the config file for the `logging.json` key. This mirrors Viper's own priority order without parsing the full config twice.
- Apply the resolved format immediately and emit **"Logging configured"** as the very first log line.
- Remove the now-redundant format-switch block that ran after `Unmarshal()`.

### `scripts/start-server.sh`, `test-graceful-shutdown.sh`, `test-opentelemetry.sh`
- Replace hardcoded `PROJECT_DIR` path with a dynamic `SCRIPTS_DIR=$(dirname $(realpath ${BASH_SOURCE[0]}))` derivation so scripts work from any worktree or clone location.

## Test plan
- [x] `go test ./pkg/...` — all pass
- [x] `scripts/test-graceful-shutdown.sh` — all JSON valid, all startup logs present
- [x] Manual smoke test: first line is `{"level":"info",...,"message":"Logging configured"}`, every line is valid JSON
