Discord Webhook error logging

[jzgom067]

This PR adds support for Discord Webhooks for error logging.

Webhook Integration

Previously, the addresses in ADMIN_EMAILS would be sent an email if a CRITICAL level error occurred. This functionality has been replaced with making a request to a Discord Webhook, sending a message to a specified channel.

This now also logs the ERROR level severity as well.

I'm not expecting that many errors, so there shouldn't be too many messages sent. If anything, any error should encourage us to fix it. This change is meant to increase visibility, considering that the only other way to see these errors is to SSH into the backend server and check the logs.

.env Changes

The new property DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL specifies the endpoint to call on error. If left empty, it will not attempt to make a request.

• If the placeholder in .env.example is copied to .env, it will cause a warning on error that tells the developer to leave the value empty.

The ADMIN_EMAILS property is no longer used, so it was removed.

Walkthrough

The error notification configuration now uses DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL instead of ADMIN_EMAILS. PlancakeLogger sends embedded error and critical messages to Discord through HTTP webhook requests when configured. The previous critical-error email and cooldown logic is removed. The environment template documents the new setting, and pinned requests dependencies are added.

Warning

There were issues while running some tools. Please review the errors and either fix the tool's configuration or disable the tool if it's a critical failure.
