docs: create ARCHITECTURE.md #39

Description

@pmady

Summary

Create an ARCHITECTURE.md documenting the project's design and data flow. Foundation reviewers and new contributors need this to understand the codebase quickly.

Suggested sections

  1. Overview — what gpu-mcp-server does and where it fits
  2. Data flow — NVML → Collector → Handler → MCP SDK → Transport → Agent
  3. Key interfacesCollector (gpu.go), Handler (server.go)
  4. Build tagsnvml.go (cgo+linux), stub.go (everything else), mock.go (tests)
  5. Transport modes — stdio (default), HTTP (optional)
  6. Deployment — standalone binary, Docker, Kubernetes DaemonSet (Helm)
  7. MIG support — how MIG instances are detected and reported

Reference

See keda-gpu-scaler's ARCHITECTURE.md for the expected level of detail.

Acceptance criteria

  • ARCHITECTURE.md at repo root
  • Covers all sections above
  • Includes a text or Mermaid diagram of the data flow
  • Linked from README

Difficulty: Beginner-Intermediate — documentation, requires reading the code
