feat: focus library on custom components only

- Remove all JLCPCB/LCSC related files and documentation
- Clean up README files to focus on custom components not in standard library
- Translate CHANGELOG to English
- Add .gitkeep files to preserve directory structure
- Library now focused on: missing 3D models, custom artwork, personal logos

## 📊 Standard Components with LCSC
### Standard Passives (R/C/L)
- **Purpose**: Consistent, cost-optimized parts with LCSC numbers
- **Footprints**: Use standard KiCad footprints (Resistor_SMD, Capacitor_SMD, etc.)
- **Symbols**: Custom symbols with LCSC part numbers and manufacturer data
- **Examples**: `100nF_0603_C14663`, `10k_0603_C25804`
### Standard ICs
- **Purpose**: Common ICs with LCSC numbers for automated assembly
- **Categories**:
- CAN transceivers: `MCP2515_SOIC-18_C55199`
- STM32 MCUs: `STM32F103C8T6_LQFP-48_C8734`
- Voltage regulators: `AMS1117-3.3_SOT-223_C6186`
- Op-amps: `LM358_SOIC-8_C7950`
- **Footprints**: Use standard KiCad footprints (Package_SO, Package_QFP, etc.)
## ⚙️ Best Practices
### Standard Component Strategy
### Component Strategy
1. **Use KiCad footprints**: Don't reinvent the wheel for standard packages
2. **LCSC integration**: Add LCSC numbers for cost optimization
3. **Manufacturer data**: Include MPN and manufacturer in symbols
4. **BOM automation**: Enable direct JLCPCB assembly integration
2. **Consistent naming**: Follow established naming conventions
3. **Documentation**: Include manufacturer data and datasheets
4. **Quality**: Test all components before adding to library
### Workflow
#### Adding New Standard Component
#### Adding New Component
1. **Check KiCad**: Verify symbol/footprint don't exist in standard libraries
2. **LCSC lookup**: Find LCSC part number and basic part status
3. **Create symbol**: With complete manufacturer data and LCSC number
4. **Link footprint**: Use existing KiCad footprint
2. **Research**: Find datasheet and manufacturer information
3. **Create symbol**: With complete manufacturer data
4. **Link footprint**: Use existing KiCad footprint or create custom
5. **Test**: Use in test circuit
6. **Document**: Add to documentation
