Feat: Add API Resource and Collection layer for consistent JSON responses

[3m1n3nc3]

Background: Standardize API responses with Resources (single model) and Collections (lists + pagination + meta).

Tasks:

• Your core implementation will live in the @h3ravel/http package directory.
• Create Resource base class (toArray, with/without relationships).
• Create Collection base class supporting pagination, meta, links.
• Integrate with response helpers to automatically detect Resource/Collection and set JSON structure.
• Provide helpers for transforming Arquebus models and relations.
• Add tests demonstrating Resource and Collection usage (single resource, collection paginated).
• Add example usage docs in http documentation.

Acceptance criteria:

• Returning a Resource from a controller yields { data: { ... } }.
• Returning a Collection yields { data: [...], meta: {...}, links: {...} }.
• Tests cover transformations and pagination meta generation.
• Interface mirrors laravel as much as possible, creating the familiar DX while also adding it own unique twists and turns.

Difficulty: medium
