Closes #85

Summary

Generated CITATION.cff files now start with a YAML comment noting the OpenCite version:

# Generated with OpenCite version 1.0.0

• The version is read from package.json via src/appVersion.js, so it stays in sync on release.
• .zenodo.json is unchanged because JSON does not support comments.
• README documents the new header.

Testing

• tests/services/appVersion.test.js: the first line of the generated file is the comment, and APP_VERSION matches package.json.
• node --test (107 passed) and npm run build on Node 22.

Notes

src/appVersion.js uses import ... with { type: 'json' }, which needs Node 20 or newer. CI uses Node 24.

This is great!
Just one fix needed for discoverability and to fix the test.
Also, should the version load be in services too?

Let's hold on merging this until we pin the pages deployment to a release so that it will be accurate to the version used.
