#Feature: Submit Your Idea Functionality with Timestamping, Hashing, and Redis Integration
##ISSUE #14
This PR implements the core "Submit Your Idea" feature for IdeaVault, including:
Frontend form for idea submission (title, description, implementation concepts, tags) with client-side validation
Backend API to accept and store ideas, generate SHA256 hash for proof-of-ownership, and store timestamp
Redis integration for rate limiting, duplicate detection, and temporary certificate caching
Certificate generation and download option after successful submission
Model and route enhancements to support all required fields and security features
This closes the gap between UI and backend, enabling secure, verifiable idea submissions with anti-spam and proof-of-ownership mechanisms.
