feat(backend): replace backend_repo_index_job_completed with backend_repo_first_indexed (#900)

* feat(backend): replace backend_repo_index_job_completed with backend_repo_first_indexed

Replaces the high-volume per-index PostHog event with one that fires only
on the first successful index of a repo, enabling accurate tracking of
unique repositories ever indexed without flooding the event stream.
