fix(search): preserve filters and report incomplete results

[waleedlatif1]

Summary

• Keep source and date filters mounted through loading, empty, incomplete, and failed searches, preserving keyboard focus and one rolling date anchor per query.
• Retain previous matches only while refining the same query, reader, and resource scope. Clear them after access resets and avoid summarizing old matches with new filters.
• Distinguish incomplete results from confirmed empty results, expose retry, and report partial completion in the existing content-free search diagnostics.

Type of Change

• Bug fix

Testing

• Real React Query and Nuqs transition tests cover focus, cancellation, late responses, scope changes, access resets, invalidation, URL updates, and retry.
• Organization search page, query hooks, access-cache reconciliation, and diagnostic tests pass.
• Disposable PostgreSQL/pgvector integration suite covers the dashboard and Assistant, forced retrieval deadlines, access isolation, and revocation.
• Type-check, lint, all repository audits, API boundary validation, and generated-artifact checks pass. Manually checked the local search controls through loading, empty, failure, and recovery.

Checklist

Summary

This PR preserves search controls and carefully scoped previous results across filter refinements, partitions cached searches by reader, distinguishes partial retrieval from confirmed empty results, and exposes retry behavior.

• Keeps source and rolling-date filters mounted across loading, failure, empty, and partial states.
• Reuses prior matches only for the same query, reader, and resource scope.
• Reports partial retrieval separately in both the UI and content-free diagnostics.
• Adds transition, cache isolation, retry, diagnostic, and integration coverage.
