Subject: [PATCH] Update SEO and metadata for development environment

Changed all SEO metadata to clearly indicate this is a development
instance, not a production site. This prevents confusion and ensures
search engines don't index the dev site.

Changes:
- Added [DEV] prefix to all page titles (SEO component)
- Updated index.html meta tags with dev-focused descriptions
- Changed robots meta to noindex, nofollow
- Updated Open Graph tags for social media previews
- Updated Twitter Card metadata
- Modified JSON-LD structured data for dev environment
- Updated FAQ structured data with dev-specific information

Key updates:
- Title: "[DEV] AeThex | Development Environment"
- Description: "Development instance of AeThex platform - Not for production use"
- Robots: noindex, nofollow (prevents search engine indexing)
