Multiple API endpoints loaded entire datasets into memory at once, causing OOM crashes for users with large data volumes. This commit adds server-side pagination and streaming to all affected endpoints.
High priority (regular user OOM):
GET /chats/all: added page/limit params with batched queries
GET /evaluations/feedbacks/user: added page/limit params
GET /files/: added page/limit params
Medium priority (admin OOM):
GET /evaluations/feedbacks/all: added page/limit params
GET /evaluations/feedbacks/all/export: converted to NDJSON streaming
GET /chats/all/db: converted to NDJSON streaming export
GET /chats/all/archived: added page/limit params
Model layer: enabled actual skip/limit in get_chats() (was commented out), added skip/limit to get_archived_chats_by_user_id, get_all_feedbacks, get_feedbacks_by_user_id, get_files, get_files_by_user_id.
Frontend: updated getAllChats, getAllArchivedChats, getFiles to paginate in batches; updated getAllUserChats and exportAllFeedbacks to parse NDJSON streams.
