fix: Correct deployment script variable expansion and paths

- Fixed heredoc variable expansion in deploy.sh (was using 'EOF' preventing variable substitution)
- Updated pre-deployment-check.sh to look in project root instead of staging-deployment
- Fixed validate-templates.sh to use correct templates directory
- Removed incorrect directory references that were breaking validation
