fix: add one-time deprecation notice for Neovim < 0.10 (#31)

Browse source 
## Problem

v0.2.0 will replace the npm `live-server` dependency with a pure-Lua
HTTP
server that requires Neovim >= 0.10 (`vim.uv`, `vim.ui.open`). Users on
older Neovim versions who auto-update will get a cryptic Lua error with
no
explanation or migration path.

## Solution

Add a one-time notification at plugin load time for Neovim < 0.10 users.
The notice tells them v0.2.0 will require Neovim >= 0.10 and shows how
to
pin to the `v0.1.6` tag. A marker file in `stdpath('data')` ensures the
message fires exactly once, ever. The plugin continues to work normally
after the notice — no functionality is removed.

This is the last release supporting Neovim < 0.10 and npm `live-server`.
Tag as `v0.1.6` after merge.
