Fix obsolete and invalid documentation (#128)

* Fix obsolete and invalid documentation across the project

Update outdated references (setup.py → pyproject.toml, TravisCI → GitHub
Actions), fix broken example file links, correct typos and grammar in
README and Sphinx docs, update copyright year range, fix
geckodriver/chromedriver naming confusion in Makefile, update contact
email in CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, and add comprehensive changelog entries
for all changes since 1.0.0.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Update release docs for trusted publishing via GitHub Actions

Remove manual twine upload step from development docs and add trusted
publishing changelog entry (PR #114).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Add documentation for context manager, on_check callback, and ImageToTextTask inputs

Document three recently added features that were missing usage examples:
- Context manager support on AnticaptchaClient
- on_check callback parameter on Job.join()
- ImageToTextTask accepting file paths and raw bytes
