fix: Add project isolation to ContextService.find_related() method (#261)

This commit resolves a critical security vulnerability where the
ContextService.find_related() method was leaking data across project
boundaries, exposing entities from other projects in related search results.

## Problem
- The recursive CTE query in find_related() used raw SQL that completely
  ignored project boundaries
- recent_activity() and build_context() tools were affected, potentially
  exposing sensitive data from private projects
- Violated the principle of least privilege and expected project isolation

## Solution
- Added project_id parameter binding to all CTE queries
- Implemented comprehensive project filtering for:
  - Base case entity queries (seed entities)
  - Relation traversal (both from_entity and to_entity)
  - Connected entity discovery
- Added LEFT JOIN for to_entity validation to ensure cross-project
  relations are blocked

## Security Impact
- Ensures complete project isolation in context building
- Prevents data leakage between projects
- Maintains principle of least privilege
- Preserves expected privacy boundaries

## Testing
- Added comprehensive test coverage for project isolation
- Verified no regressions in existing functionality
- All test suite passes (1001 tests)

Fixes: #261
