I-005: notification retry loop + dead-letter queue

Critical alerts can no longer be silently dropped by a transient
notifier failure. Failed notification attempts now ride an exponential
backoff retry loop, with a 5-attempt budget before promotion to the
dead-letter queue for operator intervention.

Schema (migration 000016, idempotent):
- retry_count INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0
- next_retry_at TIMESTAMPTZ
- last_error TEXT
- idx_notification_events_retry_sweep partial index
  (next_retry_at) WHERE status='failed' AND next_retry_at IS NOT NULL
  Dead rows clear next_retry_at so the index stops matching them.

Service contract:
- NotificationService.RetryFailedNotifications drives 2^n-minute
  exponential backoff capped at 1h (notifRetryBackoffCap) with
  5-attempt budget (notifRetryMaxAttempts).
- Exhaustion (RetryCount >= notifRetryMaxAttempts-1) promotes to
  status='dead' via MarkAsDead.
- Non-terminal failures record via RecordFailedAttempt.
- Success path promotes to 'sent' without touching retry_count
  (audit preserves "delivered on attempt N").
- Missing-notifier branch defensively promotes to 'sent' to avoid
  wedging a row on a deleted channel.
- RequeueNotification operator escape hatch atomically resets
  retry_count -> 0, next_retry_at -> NULL, last_error -> NULL,
  status -> pending via notifRepo.Requeue.

Scheduler:
- New always-on notificationRetryLoop wired into the base loop set at
  CERTCTL_NOTIFICATION_RETRY_INTERVAL (default 2m).
- sync/atomic.Bool idempotency guard.
- sync.WaitGroup shutdown drain via WaitForCompletion.

StatsService:
- SetNotifRepo setter pattern preserves 9 pre-existing
  NewStatsService call sites (main.go + stats_test.go + 8 digest
  tests) without touching the constructor signature.
- DashboardSummary.NotificationsDead populated via
  notifRepo.CountByStatus(ctx, "dead") — nil-safe when unwired
  (reports zero on systems without a notification repository).
- CountByStatus error is non-fatal (dashboard summary is
  best-effort for this field).
- Prometheus certctl_notification_dead_total counter emitted from
  the same snapshot.

Handler:
- New POST /api/v1/notifications/{id}/requeue endpoint.
- dead status surfaces to MCP + CLI.

Frontend:
- NotificationsPage gains two-tab toolbar ("All" / "Dead letter")
  with queryKey: ['notifications', activeTab] so switching tabs
  doesn't serve stale data until the 30s refetch.
- Dead rows surface "Retry {n}/5" + truncated last_error with
  full-text title tooltip.
- Requeue mutation wrapped as
    mutationFn: (id: string) => requeueNotification(id)
  to prevent react-query v5's positional context argument from
  leaking into the API client — pinned against future refactors
  by strict-match toHaveBeenCalledWith('notif-dead-001') in
  NotificationsPage.test.tsx:181.

Closes I-005.
