feat: v11 performance foundations — O(changed) indexing, FTS5 search, DB optimizations

Track B Week 1 of the v11 release plan. Five backlog items delivered:

- #11: PRAGMA mmap_size=256MB — push I/O to OS kernel memory-mapped reads
- #12: propagation_cost() size guard — BFS-sampled approximation for >500 nodes
  prevents O(V^3) hangs on large codebases
- #13: O(N)→O(changed) incremental edge rebuild — add source_file_id to edges,
  find affected neighbor files before CASCADE, re-extract only those neighbors
  instead of the entire codebase (fixes 6.6s→<5s single-file reindex)
- #14: FTS5/BM25 search replacing Python TF-IDF — tokenization, indexing, and
  ranking pushed entirely to SQLite C engine with porter unicode61 tokenizer
  and camelCase preprocessing. TF-IDF kept as graceful fallback.
- #15: 6 new composite indexes on hot query paths, 1 redundant index removed,
  batch size 400→500

Additional tech debt fixes:
- UPSERT pattern replaces N+1 UPDATE/SELECT/INSERT loops in health scores
- Removed redundant manual symbol_tfidf CASCADE cleanup
- Removed redundant standalone idx_edges_kind index

2447 tests pass, 0 failures. 89/89 performance tests pass.
