Make CT_LIMIT optimizer MUCH smarter - CDN, caching, time patterns, resources

USER REQUEST: "are we missing anything with it? can it be smarter"

ADDED 5 MAJOR INTELLIGENCE LAYERS:

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
1. CDN DETECTION & ADJUSTMENT
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

NEW: detect_cdn_usage()
- Checks DNS records for Cloudflare, Akamai, Fastly, CloudFront, Sucuri
- Checks nameservers for CDN providers
- REDUCES complexity score by -2 if CDN detected
- Reason: CDN handles static assets = fewer direct server connections

IMPACT:
  Before: WordPress site = complexity 7
  After (with CDN): complexity 5
  Result: Lower CT_LIMIT needed, better security

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
2. CACHING LAYER DETECTION & ADJUSTMENT
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

NEW: detect_caching()
- Checks for Redis running (systemctl/pgrep)
- Checks for Memcached running
- Detects WordPress caching plugins:
  • WP Rocket
  • W3 Total Cache
  • WP Super Cache
  • LiteSpeed Cache
  • WP Fastest Cache
- Checks .htaccess for cache headers
- REDUCES complexity by -(caching_score/2)

IMPACT:
  Site with Redis + WP Rocket: -3 complexity
  Result: Well-cached sites need lower CT_LIMIT

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
3. TIME-OF-DAY TRAFFIC PATTERN ANALYSIS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

NEW: Hourly traffic tracking in AWK script
- Extracts hour from timestamps
- Tracks requests per hour
- Identifies peak hour
- Calculates peak vs average ratio

DISPLAYS:
```
Traffic Patterns:
  Peak hour: 14:00 (8,542 requests)
  Average: 2,845 requests/hour
  Peak is 300% above average
  → CT_LIMIT should handle peak, not average
```

INTELLIGENCE:
- If peak >200% of average, shows warning
- Reminds: Set CT_LIMIT for peak, not average traffic
- Prevents blocking during legitimate traffic spikes

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
4. SERVER RESOURCE LIMITS CHECKING
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

NEW: check_server_resources()
- Reads total RAM (free -m)
- Counts CPU cores (nproc)
- Calculates max safe connections:
  • RAM-based: total_mb / 2 (reserve 50% for OS)
  • CPU-based: cores * 50 (rough max per core)
  • Takes lower of the two

DISPLAYS:
```
Server Resource Limits:
  RAM: 4096MB | CPU: 4 cores
  Max safe connections (hardware): 200
```

SAFETY:
- Caps recommendations at server maximum
- Prevents recommending CT_LIMIT=500 on 1GB VPS
- Shows "Note: Capped at server max" if needed

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
5. SITE-SPECIFIC OPTIMIZATION RECOMMENDATIONS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

NEW: Actionable advice per site

DISPLAYS:
```
Optimization Opportunities:
  📦 CDN Recommended for:
     • shop.example.com (would reduce CT_LIMIT need)
     • blog.example.com (would reduce CT_LIMIT need)

  ⚡ Caching Recommended for:
     • wordpress.example.com (WP Rocket, Redis, or W3 Total Cache)
     • site2.com (WP Rocket, Redis, or W3 Total Cache)

  Or if optimized:
  ✅ Sites are well-optimized (CDN + caching in place)
```

INTELLIGENCE:
- Only suggests CDN for high-complexity sites (≥6)
- Only suggests caching for WordPress without it
- Shows top 3 sites needing each optimization
- Explains benefit: "would reduce CT_LIMIT need"

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
ENHANCED RECOMMENDATION LOGIC:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Now factors in:
✅ Site type (WordPress/ecommerce/static)
✅ Plugin count
✅ Ajax complexity
✅ CDN usage (reduces needs)
✅ Caching layer (reduces needs)
✅ Ecommerce presence (+15 buffer)
✅ Average site complexity
✅ Peak hour traffic patterns
✅ Server hardware limits

EXAMPLE CALCULATION:
  Base: max_legit = 45
  Complexity buffer: +14 (avg complexity 7)
  Ecommerce bonus: +10
  Subtotal: 69
  With Redis + CDN: -3
  Final: CT_LIMIT = 66
  Capped at server max: 200 (OK, no cap needed)

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
FUNCTIONS ADDED:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

- detect_cdn_usage() - DNS/NS checking for CDN (lines 54-74)
- detect_caching() - Redis/Memcached/WP plugins (lines 76-110)
- check_server_resources() - RAM/CPU limits (lines 260-283)
- Enhanced AWK script - Hourly traffic tracking (lines 319-336)
- Enhanced generate_recommendation() - All new displays (lines 547-617)

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
RESULT:
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

BEFORE: "Set CT_LIMIT=100 (generic guess)"

AFTER: "Set CT_LIMIT=66 because:
  • Your peak traffic is 14:00 (300% above average)
  • 2 sites have ecommerce (need headroom)
  • 1 site has Redis (can be lower)
  • 1 site has CDN (can be lower)
  • Your server can handle max 200 connections
  • Recommendation fits your specific setup"

Plus: "Install Redis on wordpress.com to reduce CT_LIMIT by 15%"

SMARTER: Yes. Much smarter.
