fix(sdk): Add automatic polyfill for AbortSignal.timeout and improve docs

Address code review feedback:
- Add built-in polyfill for AbortSignal.timeout (Chrome 90+, Firefox 90+, Safari 15+)
- Replace AbortSignal.timeout calls with helper function for universal compatibility
- Update README to use CDN imports instead of direct node_modules paths
- Update documentation to reflect automatic polyfill
- Remove manual polyfill from browser example (now built-in)
- Improve browser compatibility from 103+ to 90+

+**Note:** The `@objectql/sdk` package automatically includes a polyfill for `AbortSignal.timeout()`, so it works seamlessly in older browsers without any additional configuration!

-### Polyfill for Older Browsers
+### Automatic Polyfill
 
-If you need to support older browsers, add a polyfill for `AbortSignal.timeout`:
+The SDK **automatically includes a polyfill** for `AbortSignal.timeout()` that activates when running in older browsers. You don't need to add any polyfills manually - the SDK works universally out of the box!
 
-```javascript
-// Simple polyfill for AbortSignal.timeout
-if (!AbortSignal.timeout) {
-    AbortSignal.timeout = function(ms) {
-        const controller = new AbortController();
-        setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), ms);
-        return controller.signal;
-    };
-}
-```
-
-Or use a timeout implementation without AbortSignal:
-
-```typescript
-// Custom client with manual timeout handling
-class CustomDataApiClient extends DataApiClient {
-    private async request<T>(method: string, path: string, body?: unknown): Promise<T> {
-        const controller = new AbortController();
-        const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), this.timeout);
+The polyfill is lightweight and only adds the missing functionality when needed, ensuring compatibility with:
+- Chrome 90+
+- Firefox 90+
+- Safari 15+
+- Edge 90+
 
-        try {
-            const response = await fetch(url, {
-                method,
-                headers,
-                body: body ? JSON.stringify(body) : undefined,

-        } finally {
-            clearTimeout(timeoutId);
-        }
-    }
-}

+For even older browsers, you may need to add polyfills for:
+- `fetch` API (via `whatwg-fetch`)
+- `AbortController` (via `abort-controller` package)
