Replace transmission-exporter with homegrown Python exporter (#283)
## Summary
- Replace unmaintained `metalmatze/transmission-exporter:master` sidecar with a homegrown Python exporter
- Uses `prometheus_client` + `transmission-rpc` with collect-on-scrape pattern (fresh metrics per scrape, no stale labels)
- Same metric names so existing Grafana Transmission dashboard works unchanged
- Container built with `uv` for dependency management, follows `grafana-sidecar` Dockerfile pattern

## Changes
- **New:** `containers/transmission-exporter/exporter.py` — single-file exporter (~130 lines)
- **New:** `containers/transmission-exporter/Dockerfile` — multi-stage Alpine build with uv
- **Modified:** `argocd/manifests/torrent/deployment.yaml` — swap sidecar image reference
- **Modified:** `argocd/manifests/torrent/kustomization.yaml` — add image tag entry
- **Modified:** `service-versions.yaml` — add transmission-exporter entry

## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Build container: `mise run container-build-and-release transmission-exporter`
- [ ] Update kustomization.yaml newTag with build SHA
- [ ] Branch deploy: `argocd app set torrent --revision feature/transmission-exporter-python && argocd app sync torrent`
- [ ] Verify metrics: `kubectl -n torrent --context=minikube-indri port-forward svc/transmission 19091:19091` then `curl localhost:19091/metrics | grep transmission_`
- [ ] Verify Grafana Transmission dashboard panels populate
- [ ] After merge: `argocd app set torrent --revision main && argocd app sync torrent`
