feat: Support generic (YAML) loading for temporal.Config

[mushrafmim]

Summary

Add yaml struct tags to temporal.Config so it can be populated generically from a YAML file (e.g. embedded in a larger application config struct), and reword Validate() error messages to be config-source-agnostic instead of environment-variable-specific. This mirrors the same change already made to database.Config (#209).

Type of Change

• Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
• New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
• Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
• Documentation update
• Refactoring (no functional changes)
• Performance improvement
• Other (please describe):

Changes Made

• Added yaml:"host", yaml:"port", yaml:"namespace" struct tags to temporal.Config.
• Reworded Validate() errors from env-var style (TEMPORAL_HOST is required, TEMPORAL_PORT, TEMPORAL_NAMESPACE is required) to plain field-name style (temporal host is required, temporal port must be between 1 and 65535, temporal namespace is required).
• Updated temporal/README.md with the YAML key table and an example YAML snippet.

Testing

• I have tested this change locally
• I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works
• I have tested edge cases
• All existing tests pass

Additional Notes

Existing tests in temporal/config_test.go and temporal/client_test.go only assert on error presence, not message text, so no test changes were needed.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Config type now supports YAML field mapping. The README documents YAML configuration and unmarshalling. Validation messages use lower-case temporal labels without changing validation behavior.

Changes

Temporal configuration updates

Layer / File(s)	Summary
YAML configuration contract temporal/config.go, temporal/README.md	Config fields now have YAML tags. The README documents the YAML keys and shows unmarshalling usage.
Validation message labels temporal/config.go	Config.Validate uses lower-case temporal labels. The validation checks remain unchanged.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2ab76

YAML users may omit the documented port and namespace values, causing configuration validation or client setup to fail. The issue is localized but should be corrected before relying on the new documentation.

"default" before Validate and NewClient use them, or revise the documentation to
