Fix client-side bundling by separating server and client exports

- Create dedicated /server export for server-side functions and plugin
- Main export now contains only types (client-safe)
- Remove problematic /steps export that exposed server functions
- Update README with correct import structure
- Fix tests to use /server export

This prevents server-side code from being bundled in client JavaScript,
eliminating the "require is not defined in ES module scope" runtime error.

Breaking change: workflowsPlugin must now be imported from '/server':
import { workflowsPlugin } from '@xtr-dev/payload-automation/server'

+## Import Structure
+
+The plugin uses separate exports to avoid bundling server-side code in client bundles:
+
+```typescript
+// Server-side plugin and functions
+import { workflowsPlugin } from '@xtr-dev/payload-automation/server'
+
+// Client-side components  
+import { TriggerWorkflowButton } from '@xtr-dev/payload-automation/client'
+
+// Types only (safe for both server and client)
+import type { WorkflowsPluginConfig } from '@xtr-dev/payload-automation'
+```
