fix(e2e): support both DATABASE_URL and Cloud SQL Connector

- Prefer DATABASE_URL for local development (simpler, works reliably)
- Fall back to Cloud SQL Connector for CI (has event loop issues with async)
- E2E tests skipped in CI until Cloud SQL async issues are resolved
- Unit/integration tests still run in CI

E2E tests work locally via DATABASE_URL in .env.

 E2E test fixtures with real PostgreSQL database.
 
 Uses a separate 'test_e2e' schema to isolate test data from production.
-Tests are skipped if DATABASE_URL is not set or database is unreachable.
+Supports two connection modes:
+1. Cloud SQL Connector (CI) - uses INSTANCE_CONNECTION_NAME
+2. Direct connection (local) - uses DATABASE_URL
+
+Tests are skipped if neither is configured or database is unreachable.
 
 Note: These tests must NOT be run with pytest-xdist parallelization
 as multiple workers would conflict on the shared test_e2e schema.
