feat: Phase 1 — reliability & completeness improvements

- httpx singleton: replace per-call AsyncClient with module-level singleton
  using keepalive pool (configurable via env vars). Close client on shutdown.

- Scraper pagination: multi-page fetching (default 2 pages/60 ads, configurable
  via SCRAPE_MAX_PAGES). Cursor-based early-stop to skip stale pages. Tracks
  ads_cursor per keyword for cross-cycle deduplication.

- Notification retry queue: persistent notification_queue table with exponential
  backoff (max 5 attempts → dead). Failed Telegram notifications are enqueued
  instead of silently dropped. Queue processed at start of each scheduler cycle
  (50 items max limit). /stats endpoint reports pending/dead counts.

## General Acceptance Criteria
- [ ] A single scrape cycle captures at least 90 ads for high-volume keywords (3 pages × 30 rows) instead of the current hard cap of 30
- [ ] Duplicate ads between cycles are not re-notified (cursor/offset tracking prevents this)
- [ ] HTTP connection reuse reduces willhaben API call latency by ≥40% (measured via logs)
- [ ] Failed notifications are retried up to 5 times with exponential backoff (1m, 2m, 4m, 8m, 16m between attempts)
- [ ] After 5 failed retries the notification is marked as `dead` and logged — not silently dropped
- [ ] The scheduler processes queued notifications at the start of each cycle before scraping new keywords
