feat(whatsapp): admin-selectable template parameters + reorder (#647 follow-up)

Reporter @Rekoo-PS confirmed the language fix unblocked sending, then
hit a second gap: their template uses only `{{1}} = event_name` +
`{{2}} = gallery_link`, but the legacy `buildComponents` hardcoded all
5 positional values from the `gallery_ready` shape (customer_name,
event_name, gallery_link, password_line, expiry_date). Meta rejected
with a parameter-count mismatch even after the language matched.

This adds a per-config slot list — which built-in values to send, and
in what positional order — so admins can match templates of any shape
without code changes.

## Schema (migration 138)

Additive `template_params` TEXT column on `whatsapp_configs` (default
empty string = legacy 5-slot behaviour for existing installs). Stored
as a JSON-serialized array of slot keys: `customer_name`, `event_name`,
`gallery_link`, `password_line`, `expiry_date`. Unknown / duplicate /
non-string entries are sanitized out at read time.

## Processor

- `parseTemplateParams(raw)` — defensive parser; falls back to the
  5-slot default on empty / malformed / all-invalid input.
- `buildComponents(data, metaLang, params)` — emits ONLY the listed
  slots in the listed order, computed via a small switch on slot key.
  The password line still receives the locale-specific 🔒 label and
  the empty-when-no-real-password sentinel handling.
- Processor reads `config.template_params` once per cycle and passes
  the parsed array to `buildComponents` per message.

## Admin route

- GET surfaces `template_params` as the parsed array (default 5-slot
  when null/empty).
- PUT round-trips the incoming array through `parseTemplateParams`
  before persisting, so the stored value is always the canonical
  sanitized JSON.
- Test send rebuilt to use the same `buildComponents` path so the
  admin's test message matches their configured slot shape — a
  reporter who configures 2 slots gets a 2-parameter test send, not
  the legacy 5-parameter payload.

## UI

- `WhatsAppTab` gets a checkbox + up/down list under the Template
  language field. Each slot shows its current `{{N}}` position when
  checked, an em-dash when unchecked. Live preview below the list:
  "Your template will receive: {{1}} = event_name, {{2}} = gallery_link".
- EN + DE i18n for the field labels, hint, preview, and per-slot
  human-readable names.

## Tests

- 17 unit tests in `__tests__/utils/whatsappBuildComponents.test.js`
  covering: parseTemplateParams sanitization (unknown keys, duplicates,
  non-strings, malformed JSON, all-invalid fallback, pre-parsed array
  acceptance) and buildComponents shape (reporter's 2-slot case,
  reorder, empty list, locale-specific password label, password
  sentinel handling, expiry omission).
- All 17 + the 34 existing networkValidation tests pass.

## Migration numbering

Sits at 138 on top of PR #649's migration 137. If #646 (Live Slideshow)
merges before this, #646's own 137 + 138 take precedence and this
needs renumbering to 139. Coordinated via PR #646's review thread.

## Honest caveat

Still no Meta Business API account on my side. Spec-built, sanitizer +
shape unit-tested, lint + tsc clean. End-to-end against Meta needs the
reporter (or a maintainer with an account) to verify. If a real
round-trip surfaces a mismatch, drop it in #647 and I'll iterate.
