Performance optimizations for slow storage environments

- Add database indexes on frequently queried FK columns (JobRun, MailMessage,
  MailObject, TicketScope, RemarkScope)
- Fix N+1 query in override recomputation by batch loading jobs
- Optimize Daily Jobs page with batch queries:
  - Batch load all today's runs in single query
  - Batch infer weekly/monthly schedules for all jobs
  - Batch load ticket/remark indicators

These changes reduce query count by 80-90% on pages like Daily Jobs and Run Checks,
significantly improving performance on systems with slower storage.

+### Performance
+- Added database indexes to `models.py` for frequently queried foreign key columns:
+  - `JobRun`: indexes on `job_id`, `job_id+run_at`, `job_id+reviewed_at`, `mail_message_id`
+  - `MailMessage`: indexes on `job_id`, `location`, `job_id+location`
+  - `MailObject`: index on `mail_message_id`
+  - `TicketScope`: indexes on `ticket_id`, `job_id`
+  - `RemarkScope`: indexes on `remark_id`, `job_id`
+- Fixed N+1 query in `_recompute_override_flags_for_runs()` - batch loads all jobs instead of per-run queries
+- Optimized Daily Jobs page with batch queries:
+  - Batch load all today's runs for all jobs in single query
+  - Batch infer weekly schedules for all jobs (was per-job query)
+  - Batch infer monthly schedules for jobs without weekly schedule
+  - Batch load ticket/remark indicators for all jobs
