Enhance attachment manager with dual text content handling

- Updated `GetText` and `SaveText` methods to support both full content and a preview (first 2000 characters) for improved performance and usability.
- Added comprehensive tests in `manager_test.go` to validate the new functionality, including UTF-8 character handling and content retrieval scenarios.
- Modified the attachment model to include a `content_preview` field alongside the existing `content` field, ensuring efficient data management.
- Enhanced the README.md to document the new dual storage feature, providing clear examples for users on how to utilize the updated methods.

 The attachment package supports storing parsed text content extracted from files (e.g., from PDFs, Word documents, or image OCR). This is useful for building search indexes or providing text-based previews.
 
+The system automatically maintains two versions of the text content:
+- **Full content** (`content`): Complete text, stored as longText (up to 4GB)
+- **Preview** (`content_preview`): First 2000 characters, stored as text for quick access

+### Performance Optimization
+
+The text content fields are optimized for different use cases:
+
+| Field | Size Limit | Use Case | Performance |
+|-------|------------|----------|-------------|
+| `content_preview` | 2000 chars | Quick preview, UI display, snippets | ⚡ Very Fast |
+| `content` | 4GB | Full text search, complete content | 🐌 Slow for large files |
+
+**Best Practices:**
+1. Use preview by default: `GetText(ctx, fileID)`
+2. Only request full content when necessary: `GetText(ctx, fileID, true)`
+3. Both fields are excluded from `List()` by default for optimal performance
+4. Preview uses character (rune) count, not bytes, for proper UTF-8 handling

 ### Text Content Features
 
-- **Storage**: Text content is stored in the `content` field (longText type) of the attachment record
-- **Size**: Supports very large text content (up to 4GB with longText type)
+- **Dual Storage**: Automatically maintains both full content and preview (2000 chars)
+- **Size Limits**: 
+  - Preview: 2000 characters (text type)
+  - Full content: Up to 4GB (longText type)
+- **Smart Retrieval**: Returns preview by default, full content on demand
 - **Update**: Text content can be updated at any time using `SaveText`
-- **Clear**: Set text to empty string to clear the content
-- **Retrieval**: Returns empty string if no text content has been saved
+- **Clear**: Set text to empty string to clear both fields
+- **UTF-8 Safe**: Preview uses character (rune) count, not bytes, ensuring proper multi-byte character handling
+- **Performance**: Both `content` and `content_preview` fields are excluded by default in `List()` and `Info()` operations to avoid loading text data. Use `GetText()` to explicitly retrieve text content when needed
