Enhance notification APIs with HTML email support, CC/BCC, and structured logging

Add comprehensive improvements across REST and gRPC APIs:
  - Add structured logging for all notification operations
  - Implement HTML email support with multipart/alternative MIME
  - Add CC and BCC recipient support for email notifications
  - Add GetNotifiers endpoint to query available notifier configurations
  - Support configurable From name in SMTP configuration
  - Auto-detect content type (text vs HTML) in notification bodies
  - Improve error handling and validation across all endpoints
