This PR introduces a Chrome extension designed to solve Sudoku puzzles on gridpuzzle.com, specifically targeting the "Evil Sudoku" page but working on others as well.

The extension works by:

  1. Injecting a "Solve" button into the page header.
  2. Scraping the grid state from the DOM, respecting data-readonly attributes to identify initial clues.
  3. Solving the puzzle using a JavaScript-based backtracking algorithm (client-side, no external dependencies).
  4. Simulating user interaction (clicks and keyboard events) to fill in the calculated solution.

The implementation is contained entirely within ChromeExtensions/GridPuzzleSudoku/.

I have updated the implementation to call the Python solver. I added a Run/ExtensionServer.py (Flask) that exposes the SudokuSolver (which uses OR-Tools) via a local API. The Chrome extension now communicates with this local server to solve the puzzle.

- Add `Run/ExtensionServer.py`: A Flask server exposing the SudokuSolver.
- Update `ChromeExtensions/GridPuzzleSudoku/content.js`: Now calls the local Python server instead of using a client-side backtracking solver.
- Update `ChromeExtensions/GridPuzzleSudoku/README.md`: Add instructions for running the server.
