docs: update frontend architecture documentation

Update frontend architecture documentation across all three frontends
(admin, vendor, shop) to reflect current implementation:

- Document template inheritance patterns
- Update Alpine.js component usage
- Add CDN fallback strategy references
- Clarify context variable usage
- Update template structure diagrams

Also update base templates with improved comments and organization.
