fix(env): defer Stripe validation to prevent startup failures

Environment validation was throwing errors at module import time,
causing HTTP 500 errors during server-side rendering.

Changes:
- Convert Stripe validation errors to warnings
- Validation will fail gracefully at payment time instead of startup
- Added typeof window check to ensure server-side only
- Prevents blocking the entire application for missing Stripe config

This allows the site to start even if Stripe is misconfigured,
with proper error handling at the payment endpoint level.
