Adds a .gitattributes that pins LF in the repo for source/config and CRLF for Windows-only scripts (.ps1/.cmd/.bat), then runs `git add --renormalize .` to apply it to existing files. Eliminates the recurring "phantom uncommitted changes" caused by editors re-saving files with CRLF when the repo stores LF. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
.gitattributesthat pins LF for source/config files and CRLF for Windows-only scripts (.ps1,.psm1,.cmd,.bat).git add --renormalize .so the existing tree matches what.gitattributesdeclares.Why
The working tree kept showing "uncommitted changes" on
dev(5 files:WaitStats.json,BenefitScorer.cs,WaitStatsConfig.cs, two.csprojs) that were pure CRLF↔LF drift —git diff --ignore-cr-at-eolwas empty. With no.gitattributesand nocore.autocrlfpolicy, editors were re-saving as CRLF while the repo stored LF, producing phantom diffs.This commit normalizes once so future checkouts/saves stay clean.
