Bruno Postle 27883e468e forgejo: document ifcmerge mergeability — bare repo gitattributes finding
Investigation confirmed: Forgejo's git merge-tree --write-tree (git ≥2.38)
does invoke configured merge drivers for .ifc files.

Key finding: bare repositories do NOT read committed .gitattributes — the
merge driver is silently skipped without a system-wide core.attributesFile.

Changes:
- server-config/gitattributes: new file to deploy at /etc/gitattributes,
  containing "*.ifc merge=ifcmerge"
- server-config/gitconfig-ifcmerge: adds [core] attributesFile = /etc/gitattributes
  and explains the bare-repo constraint
- forgejo/README.md: rewrites ifcmerge section with investigation findings,
  deployment steps, and distinction between server-side vs client-side setup
