# Description of Changes
- **What was changed:**
- Removed explicit constructor definitions annotated with `@Autowired`
across services, controllers, filters, and schedulers.
- Added Lombok’s `@RequiredArgsConstructor` to automatically generate
required-args constructors and eliminate boilerplate.
- Introduced other Lombok annotations (`@Data`, `@Getter`, `@Setter`,
`@EqualsAndHashCode`, `@NoArgsConstructor`) on model and API classes to
replace manual getters/setters and constructors.
- Standardized string comparisons to use the constant-first form (e.g.,
`"value".equals(variable)`).
- Cleaned up unused imports and organized OpenAPI configuration by
extracting default title/description constants.
- **Why the change was made:**
- To reduce repetitive boilerplate code and improve maintainability.
- To leverage Lombok for cleaner, more consistent dependency injection
and data modeling.
- To ensure a uniform coding style across the entire codebase.

# Description of Changes
Please provide a summary of the changes, including:
- **What was changed:**
- Updated the backup import logic in `InitialSecuritySetup` so that the
database backup is only imported during initialization when there are no
users present. If no backup exists, the admin user is initialized
instead.
- Refactored the API key addition in `UserService` by extracting the
logic into a private helper method `saveUser(Optional<User> user)` and
added a call to export the database after updating the user's API key.
- **Why the change was made:**
- To prevent accidental or unintended backup imports outside the
initialization process, ensuring the system only imports backups when
necessary.
- To improve code clarity and maintainability in the user API key
management process, while ensuring that the database state is preserved
via an export after key updates.

# Description of Changes
This pull request includes several changes primarily focused on
improving configuration management, removing deprecated methods, and
updating paths for external dependencies. The most important changes are
summarized below:
### Configuration Management Improvements:
* Added a new `RuntimePathConfig` class to manage dynamic paths for
operations and pipeline configurations
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/RuntimePathConfig.java`).
* Removed the `bookAndHtmlFormatsInstalled` bean and its associated
logic from `AppConfig` and `EndpointConfiguration`
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/AppConfig.java`,
`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/EndpointConfiguration.java`).

### External Dependency Path Updates:
* Updated paths for `weasyprint` and `unoconvert` in
`ExternalAppDepConfig` to use values from `RuntimePathConfig`
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/ExternalAppDepConfig.java`).

### Minor Adjustments:
* Corrected a typo from "Unoconv" to "Unoconvert" in
`EndpointConfiguration`
(`src/main/java/stirling/software/SPDF/config/EndpointConfiguration.java`).

# Description
External DB support for Stirling PDF. You can now choose between the
default H2 or PostgreSQL by setting the new `enableCustomDatabase`
property to `true` or `false`.
To enable your own custom (PostgreSQL) database:
- Set `enableCustomDatabase` to `true`
- Add your database url to `customDatabaseUrl`
- Set your `username` and `password`
Closes#2270

# Description
This pull request includes several changes aimed at improving the code
structure and removing redundant code. The most significant changes
involve reordering methods, removing unnecessary annotations, and
refactoring constructors to use dependency injection.
Autowired now comes via constructor (which also doesn't need autowired
annotation as its done by default for configuration)
