perf(tests): copy a migrated template DB instead of migrating per test

Most tests opened a throwaway panel DB with database.InitDB, which runs the
full AutoMigrate + seed on an empty file every time: ~230ms, and ~850ms under
-race because GORM's reflection-heavy migration is what the detector slows
most. internal/web/service does this in ~550 of its 830 tests, so the CI race
job spent ~10 of its ~14.6 minutes re-migrating empty databases.

internal/database/dbtest.InitDB migrates once per test process, then hands
each test its own copy of that file (~130ms under -race) and registers the
CloseDB cleanup. The copy then goes through InitDB like a panel restart, so
every test still starts from the state a fresh install has. Tests that reopen
an existing file, migrate a hand-built legacy DB or target Postgres keep
calling database.InitDB.

Locally under -race: internal/web/service 626s (last CI run) -> 114s,
internal/sub 246s -> 35s.

- **Stdlib `testing` only** — no testify. Table-driven with `t.Run` subtests and `t.Helper()` on helpers.
- **Assert the contract, not internals.** Pin the exact value / typed error / emitted string — not `err != nil` or `len > 0`. A test that still passes when the behavior is broken is worse than no test.
- **Real dependencies over mocks.** Get a throwaway DB with `database.InitDB(filepath.Join(t.TempDir(), "x-ui.db"))` + `t.Cleanup(func() { _ = database.CloseDB() })` (Windows-safe), and use `httptest` servers for HTTP. The `internal/sub` suite's `initSubDB(t)` is the template.
- **Real dependencies over mocks.** Get a throwaway DB with `dbtest.InitDB(t, filepath.Join(t.TempDir(), "x-ui.db"))` from `internal/database/dbtest`: it copies a once-migrated template (migrating from scratch per test is ~7x slower, worst under `-race`) and closes the DB before `t.TempDir` cleanup (Windows-safe). Keep `database.InitDB` for reopening an existing file or migrating a hand-built legacy DB. Use `httptest` servers for HTTP. The `internal/sub` suite's `initSubDB(t)` is the template.
