Added a comprehensive README.md explaining the Proxmox LXC template automation workflow. Updated the Rocky9 Packer variable file to use 'rocky9-lxc' as the template name instead of 'rocky9-fungible'.

Also these files are all in the container-creation/intern-phxdc-pve1 directory if you didn't notice. Let's get them their own packer or templates or images subdir and merge the .github directories.
Replaces Python scripts proxmox_upload.py and proxmox_utils.py with Node.js equivalents proxmox_upload.js and proxmox_utils.js for uploading LXC templates to Proxmox. Adds package.json for dependencies and updates CI workflow to trigger on changes in the packer directory. Minor improvements to Ansible provisioning and Packer variable files.

Changed the https.Agent configuration to reject unauthorized SSL certificates, ensuring that API requests to Proxmox require valid certificates. This improves security by preventing connections to servers with self-signed or invalid certificates.
Renamed and relocated all packer-related files and directories from container-creation/intern-phxdc-pve1/packer/ to their respective top-level locations for improved project structure and accessibility.

Expanded GitHub workflow trigger to all 'packer/**' paths. Refactored template_version variable in debian12 and rocky9 Packer configs for consistency. Modified Ansible provisioning to download and execute pown.sh from a remote source instead of copying a local file. Updated Rocky9 build to use template_version in output filename.
Added Ansible tasks to update all packages for RedHat-based and Debian-based systems in site.yml. Also fixed a typo in the container creation script's update message.

Moves TEMPLATE_VERSION assignment from job-level env to a dedicated step using the current date. Cleans up comments and formatting for improved clarity in the build-templates workflow.
