Description
This PR fixes the “Prisma Client could not locate the Query Engine (rhel-openssl-3.0.x)” error by moving the project to Prisma 7, which introduces a new runtime and generator designed for Next.js App Router and Turbopack.
With the new generator, Prisma bundles engine binaries in a stable, traceable structure that Vercel reliably includes during deployment. The added prisma.config.ts centralizes Prisma settings, ensures consistent schema resolution, and improves monorepo compatibility. Updating the generator output to ../generated places the client in the source tree, making file tracing deterministic.
Together, these updates ensure the correct query engine is always included, resolving the runtime error and making Prisma fully compatible with Next.js + Vercel in a monorepo setup.

Additional Notes
Prisma now officially recommends using the prisma-client generator introduced in Prisma 7. This generator replaces the older prisma-client-js generator and is the preferred, future-proof way to generate Prisma Client in all new projects.
