CONFIGURATION CENTRALIZATION
================================================================================

BEFORE: Hardcoded in multiple locations
  - Line 665: server_url = "http://rpi-ansible:80/logs"
  - Line 794: SERVER_HOST = "rpi-ansible"
  - Line 1250: hostname = "10.76.140.17"

AFTER: All in config_settings.py
  MONITORING_SERVER_URL = "http://rpi-ansible:80/logs"
  AUTO_UPDATE_SERVER_HOST = "rpi-ansible"
  CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_HOST = "10.76.140.17"

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES: Override without editing code
  export MONITORING_SERVER_HOST=192.168.1.100
  python3 app_modular.py

================================================================================
