Add path-based JWT validation support in JwtValidatorPlugin

- Introduced `paths` and `only_paths` configuration options to define protected API paths.
- Enhanced HAProxy configuration generation to handle path-specific JWT validation.
- Updated plugin metadata to include path details and validation logic.
- Modified documentation with detailed examples for protecting paths.
- Added comprehensive tests for path-based validation scenarios and edge cases.

- `only_paths` - If `true`, only specified paths are accessible; if `false` (default), only specified paths require JWT validation

**Path Validation Logic:**
- **No paths configured:** ALL requests to the domain require JWT validation (default behavior)
- **Paths configured + `only_paths=false`:** Only specified paths require JWT validation, other paths pass through without validation
- **Paths configured + `only_paths=true`:** Only specified paths are accessible (with JWT validation), all other paths are denied
