perf(db): add owner-prefixed hot-path indexes on JobApplications

Add composite indexes (OwnerUserId, IsDeleted) — for the tenant-scoped
list/board/stats/analytics queries that all filter !IsDeleted — and
(OwnerUserId, FollowUpAt) for the reminders surface. Every JobApplication
query is scoped by the OwnerUserId global filter first, so owner-prefixed
composites are the useful shape; the pre-existing single OwnerUserId index
is now a redundant prefix but kept to avoid churn.

Status is intentionally excluded: Pomelo maps the unbounded string column to
MariaDB longtext, which cannot be indexed without a prefix length.

Applied via the startup schema reconciler (StartupInitializationExtensions),
which is how this repo actually provisions schema/indexes on both providers
(SQLite: CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS; MariaDB: MySqlIndexExists-guarded CREATE
INDEX) — NOT via EF migrations, whose committed ModelSnapshot is stale.
OnModelCreating also declares the indexes for model consistency.

Backend suite: 92/92 green.
