feat(home): add Recent Requests panel + excludeTests allowlist fix (#10900)

Merged — reimplementation extracting the non-conflicting Recent Requests panel + excludeTests allowlist fix from #8450 (see PR body for the full scoping rationale, including why the topology UX rework was deliberately excluded — it contradicts the already-shipped #8428). typecheck/file-size/changelog/complexity/cognitive-complexity/i18n-coverage gates all clean, 2/2 unit + 1/1 vitest passing.

+- **feat(home):** add a live **Recent Requests** panel beside the home Provider Topology (polls `GET /api/usage/call-logs?excludeTests=1` every ~3s, gated by the topology appearance toggle + page visibility). `excludeTests` is now an allowlist of real provider inference (`/v1/%` or `/api/v1/%`), applied before `LIMIT`, so connection-test/model-sync/management rows can never leak into the feed ([#10897](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/10897), extracted from [#8450](https://github.com/diegosouzapw/OmniRoute/pull/8450)) — thanks @nguyenha935

+ *
+ * ## Data source
+ * Fed by POLLING `GET /api/usage/call-logs?limit=N` every ~3s, NOT by the live
+ * WebSocket. The WS is used elsewhere for the in-flight beam (it emits
+ * `request.started` and, since the stuck-latch fix, `request.completed`/`request.failed`),
+ * but its payload carries no tokens/latency/status and no persisted history — so it
+ * can't back a "recent requests" table on its own. The call-logs endpoint merges the
+ * in-memory active/completed entries with persisted rows and returns them newest-first
+ * (active on top), which is exactly this feed.
+ *
+ * The poll is gated by `enabled` (the same `showProviderTopologyOnHome` flag that
+ * gates the topology section) AND page visibility, so a backgrounded tab pauses.
