feat(session): persistent browser context pool with lifecycle management

- SessionContextService: in-memory Map of live Playwright handles, reused
  per sessionName across exec_code/open_url calls; closed on module destroy
- SessionSchedulerService: @Interval closes idle sessions and deletes old
  closed ones using SESSION_IDLE_TIMEOUT_MINUTES / SESSION_DELETE_CLOSED_DAYS
- SessionService: onApplicationBootstrap closes all open sessions on restart;
  upsert marks status=open and sets lastUsedAt; adds markOpen/markClosed/
  touchLastUsed/findExpiredOpen/findOldClosed/findById helpers
- SessionEntity: status (open|closed) and lastUsedAt columns added
- AuthService: keeps browser alive after login, registers context in pool
- BrowserService: named sessions reuse persistent context; anonymous remain ephemeral
- AppConfig: all config fields declared with typed defaults; validate wired
  into ConfigModule so mis-configuration fails fast at startup
- ConfigService<AppConfig, true> used everywhere — no more untyped get() calls
