Add Vercel Web Analytics to Next.js

Implemented Vercel Web Analytics for Next.js

Summary:
Successfully installed and configured Vercel Web Analytics in this Next.js App Router project.

Changes Made:

1. Installed @vercel/analytics package:
   - Added @vercel/analytics@^1.6.1 to package.json dependencies
   - Updated package-lock.json with new dependency tree

2. Modified app/layout.tsx:
   - Added import statement: import { Analytics } from '@vercel/analytics/next'
   - Added <Analytics /> component inside the <body> tag, after <SpeedInsights />
   - Maintained existing code structure and formatting

3. Verification:
   - Build completed successfully with no errors (npm run build)
   - No linting errors (no lint script configured in project)
   - No test failures (no test script configured in project)
   - All changes follow Next.js App Router best practices

Implementation Details:
- The Analytics component is placed at the end of the body tag, following the existing pattern used for SpeedInsights
- The component will automatically track page views and Web Vitals data
- Works seamlessly with the existing SpeedInsights integration
- No environment variables or additional configuration required

Files Modified:
- app/layout.tsx (added Analytics import and component)
- package.json (added @vercel/analytics dependency)
- package-lock.json (updated with new dependency tree)
