fix: Windows compatibility and localhost binding

**Windows compatibility:**
- Added filepath.Join for all template and static paths
- Fixes "path not found" errors on Windows

**Localhost binding:**
- Changed default host from 0.0.0.0 to 127.0.0.1
- Browser always opens on 127.0.0.1 (localhost)
- Setup mode now listens on 127.0.0.1:8080
- Updated config.example.yaml with comment about 0.0.0.0

This ensures the app works correctly on Windows and opens
browser on the correct localhost address.
