polish: add CI badge, clean LICENSE, expand .gitignore, add sample data

- Add GitHub Actions validation badge to README
- Clean LICENSE file (remove YAML frontmatter, update copyright to 2025)
- Expand .gitignore: add .venv/, OS files (Thumbs.db, .DS_Store), editor files, build artifacts
- Add 'make help' target to Makefile showing all available commands
- Add sample data rows to daily-log.csv demonstrating validator features
