Add arXiv preprint badge and citation metadata
The paper is published as arXiv:2605.19850 (https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.19850). - README.md: arXiv badge alongside build / license / DOI badges. - README.md Citation section: an @Article entry for the arXiv preprint (the form a reader citing the work should use), with the existing @misc Zenodo entry retitled and kept as the cite-the-code/data option. - CITATION.cff: a preferred-citation block of type article pointing at the arXiv paper, so GitHub's "Cite this repository" button surfaces the paper rather than the software record. The stale placeholder comment about unminted DOIs is replaced.
