Email Service Integration

Overview

Abstracted email service with template support:

• Interface in Application - IEmailService
• SendGrid implementation - Production-ready provider
• Template support - Dynamic content with placeholders
• Localization - Multiple language templates
• Domain event integration - Send on user actions
