fix(combo): use traceId for call log id to prevent UNIQUE constraint failure (#13546)

Combo attempt call logs are keyed on the per-attempt `traceId` instead of the shared `pendingRequestId` (#13481). Every attempt of a failed-over combo reused the same id, so the successful member hit the `call_logs` UNIQUE constraint and was silently dropped: the dashboard showed only the failed steps.

Maintainer additions: carried your regression test from #13526 (`combo attempt uses traceId as the log id, not pendingRequestId`, two attempts sharing one request id both persist) into this cleaner branch. Removed the now-unused `pendingRequestId` destructure (`no-unused-vars`) and added a short comment at the call site.

Validated in one consolidated batch of this series (37 PRs boarded together on `release/v3.8.51`): `typecheck:core`, `check:open-sse-typecheck` and `check:dashboard-typecheck` clean; ESLint clean on every changed file; file-size, complexity, cognitive-complexity, changelog-integrity, docs-counts, docs-sync and migration-numbering gates green (only the pre-existing `open-sse/utils/stream.ts` file-size red remains, inherited from the base); 3,743 focused `node:test` cases plus 34 vitest cases green.

Thanks @KooshaPari!
