feat(backend,frontend): migrate data APIs from REST to native tRPC over WebSocket

Replace REST module routers with a single typed tRPC appRouter served over
/trpc (HTTP + WebSocket), and rewire the frontend to call it via
@trpc/client wsLink (browser) and httpLink (RSC data layer). Existing
/api/health + /api/metrics stay as plain Express for infra scraping.

Notable fixes surfaced by the live smoke test:
- Express 5 / path-to-regexp v8 rejects the /trpc/* wildcard route; use a
  prefix middleware that computes opts.path from the URL instead.
- nodeHTTPRequestHandler treats opts.path as the literal procedure path, so
  it is derived per-request from req.url.
- Two ws servers on one http.Server (the /ws voice socket + /trpc) collided
  and returned 400 on upgrade; both now use noServer + a manually routed
  server.on('upgrade') keyed by path.

Verified: BE tsc+biome+40 vitest green; FE tsc+biome green; live
HTTP and WebSocket calls returned real prod data.
