Add rate limiting and resource-abuse protection guidance #20

Description

@Subhransu-De

What to build

Add a template-level answer for rate limiting and resource-abuse protection. This can be implemented in app middleware or documented as an infrastructure concern, but the production default must not be ambiguous.

Acceptance criteria

  • Documentation states where rate limiting should be enforced: app, gateway, reverse proxy, or platform.
  • Example limits are provided for API routes and authentication-sensitive routes.
  • If implemented in-app, tests cover allowed and limited requests.
  • If delegated to infrastructure, sample Nginx/Traefik/Kubernetes/cloud-gateway guidance is provided.
  • The approach addresses OWASP-style unrestricted resource consumption risk.
