feat: Configure scratch buffer for org-mode with cursor at end
- Set initial-major-mode to org-mode for *scratch* buffer
- Add emacs-startup-hook to position cursor at end of buffer
- Update greeting message comment syntax from ;; to # for org-mode
- Re-enable debug flag reset on startup in early-init.el
This makes the scratch buffer immediately ready for org-mode note-taking
with cursor positioned for typing, eliminating manual mode switching and
cursor movement.
