Helm charts have been migrated

This repository no longer contains Kubernetes or Helm artifacts (charts/, chart packaging, or chart-oriented GitHub Actions). They now live in the DIF Helm charts repository.

Charts repository	decentralized-identity/helm-charts
Helm repo (add / install)	helm repo add dif https://decentralized-identity.github.io/helm-charts then e.g. helm install my-release dif/didwebvh-server-py

Use that project for chart development, versioning, and releases. This repo is application source only (server, demo, docs).
