Scaffolded Library Layout

Mirrors the defaults provided by helm create:

my-app/
├── my_app.libsonnet                # entry point (imports all components)
├── _library.libsonnet              # library metadata replacer of Chart.yaml
├── _config.libsonnet               # configurable values (image, ports, replicas) replacer of values.yaml
├── _common.libsonnet               # shared helpers (fullname, labels, selectors)
├── _images.libsonnet               # image digest/tag resolution
├── deployment.libsonnet            # Deployment + probes
├── service.libsonnet               # Service
├── serviceaccount.libsonnet        # ServiceAccount
├── hpa.libsonnet                   # HorizontalPodAutoscaler
├── ingress.libsonnet               # Ingress
├── httproute.libsonnet             # Gateway API HTTPRoute

├── jsonnetfile.lock.json
└── vendor/                         # after jb install

The library depends on k8s-libsonnet 1.36 and gateway-api-libsonnet 1.5, pulled automatically by jb install.
