Major Changes:
- Convert all JavaScript files to Parenscript for better maintainability
- Move spectrum-analyzer to parenscript/ directory structure

- Added comprehensive project statistics (408 commits, 9,300 LOC)
This conversion improves code maintainability by using Lisp throughout
the stack and makes it easier to share code between frontend and backend.
