Refactor server configuration management

- Removed old server configuration files (server.json, server.log, server_config.c, server_config.h).
- Introduced a new configuration file (server.conf) with a more structured format.
- Implemented a configuration parser (config_parser.c) to read and apply settings from server.conf.
- Updated server logic to utilize the new configuration structure.
- Enhanced logging functionality and added rate limiting features.
- Improved error handling and security measures in request processing.

 ### Server Configuration
 
-Create or edit `server.json` in the project root:
+Create or edit `server.conf` in the project root. Carbon uses a traditional Linux-style configuration format with `key = value` pairs:
 
-```json
-{
-    "port": 8080,
-    "use_https": false,
-    "log_file": "log/server.log",
-    "max_threads": 4,
-    "running": true,
-    "server_name": "localhost",
-    "verbose": true
-}
+```conf
+# Carbon Web Server Configuration File
+# Lines starting with # are comments
+
+# Server listening port
+port = 8080
+
+# Enable HTTPS (requires valid certificates in certs/ directory)
+use_https = false
+
+# Log file location
+log_file = log/server.log
+
+# Maximum number of worker threads
+max_threads = 4
+
+# Server running state
+running = true
+
+# Server name or IP address (used for logging and response headers)
+server_name = localhost
+
+# Enable verbose logging
+verbose = true
 ```
 
 **Configuration Options:**
 - `port`: HTTP port (default: 8080)
-- `use_https`: Enable HTTPS (requires SSL certificates)
+- `use_https`: Enable HTTPS - accepts: true/false, yes/no, on/off, 1/0 (requires SSL certificates)
 - `log_file`: Path to log file
 - `max_threads`: Number of worker threads
 - `server_name`: Your domain or IP address
-- `verbose`: Enable detailed logging
+- `verbose`: Enable detailed logging - accepts: true/false, yes/no, on/off, 1/0
+
+**Note:** Boolean values are flexible and accept multiple formats:
+- True: `true`, `yes`, `on`, `1`
+- False: `false`, `no`, `off`, `0`
+
+Values can optionally be quoted with single or double quotes.
