feat: disable deprecated Graph editor tab by default (#64)
The Graph editor tab uses deprecated IntelliJ Platform APIs
(GraphBuilder, GraphBuilderFactory) that can cause IDE freezes on
newer platform versions. Gate the feature behind a JVM system property
so it is hidden by default. Users who need the graph view can opt in
with -Dcom.intellij.struts2.enableGraphEditor=true via
Help | Edit Custom VM Options.

+## Optional features
+
+### Graph editor tab (disabled by default)
+
+The plugin includes a visual graph view for `struts.xml` configuration files.
This feature uses a deprecated IntelliJ Platform API and is disabled by default
because it can cause IDE freezes on newer platform versions.
+
+To enable it, add the following JVM property via **Help | Edit Custom VM
Options**:
+
+```
+-Dcom.intellij.struts2.enableGraphEditor=true
+```
+
+Restart the IDE after adding the property. The `Graph` tab will then appear
when opening `struts.xml` files that are part of a Struts file set.
+
## Testing
Tests are located in `src/test/java` and use IntelliJ Platform test frameworks
(`LightJavaCodeInsightFixtureTestCase` and similar). Test data fixtures are in
`src/test/testData`.
