Add nodemon.json for full hot-reload (backend + frontend)

nodemon now watches both server.js and client/src/. On any change,
it rebuilds the React app and restarts Express — so git push makes
both backend AND frontend changes visible on the hot domain.

- dev script simplified to "nodemon" (reads nodemon.json config)
- dev:local added for human developers who want Vite HMR
