perf: broad performance improvements for v3.3.0

Backend:
- Fix SQLite WAL mode activation (modernc.org/sqlite _pragma= syntax)
- Fix WebSocket/CORS origin check for IP-based access
- Combine DashboardSummary into single aggregate query (8 queries → 1)
- Replace bubble sort with sort.Slice in ShadowIT handler
- Pre-compile CIDR networks at init instead of per-request parsing
- Use buffered scanner in log tailer instead of io.ReadAll
- Cache GDPR setting with 30s TTL instead of per-row DB query
- Pool HTTP clients for WAF/proxy calls (reuse vs per-request alloc)
- Replace readAll with bytes.Buffer for efficient memory usage
- Pre-format import timestamp outside loop in blacklist import

Frontend:
- Increase React Query staleTime from 10s to 60s
- Increase Dashboard refetch interval from 10s to 30s
- Increase ThreatIntel refetch intervals (15s→30s, 30s→60s)
- Add visibility check to sidebar health poll, increase to 30s
