♻️(backend) align Application model field with is_active convention

Most models in the project use `is_active` rather than `active`.
The Application model was not aligned with this convention.

Rename the field and add a migration to standardize the naming.
Update related tests accordingly.

This change should not introduce breaking changes for external
applications.
