Fast path (DATE/TITLE/UPLOAD_DATE) pushes sort + paging into the DB via
findAll(Specification, PageRequest) and enriches only the returned slice
— 30× cheaper than enriching all 1500 matches when the user is only
going to see 50. In-memory sort paths (SENDER/RECEIVER/RELEVANCE) keep
their LEFT JOIN-friendly sort but now slice in-memory too, so enrichment
still runs against the page slice only.
Controller passes PageRequest.of(page, size) built from @RequestParam
values. Plan-level "add @Validated" prerequisite comes in the next commit.
All existing tests updated mechanically to pass a pageable argument
(PageRequest.of(0, 10_000) as an "effectively unpaged" sentinel). Stubs
that previously matched findAll(Specification, Sort) for the fast path
now match findAll(Specification, Pageable) with PageImpl<>.
