+/**
+ * Migration: backfill historical send/payment dates on already-imported
+ * invoices.
+ *
+ * Background: the invoice-import endpoint (POST /admin/invoices/import)
+ * used to stamp `sent_at` and `paid_at` with the moment of import
+ * (`new Date()`) rather than the document's own historical dates. The
+ * CRM dashboard's "Revenue · last 30 days" card keys on `paid_at`, so a
+ * year-old paid invoice imported today wrongly counted toward the
+ * rolling window. The route now anchors both timestamps to `issue_date`
+ * (with an optional explicit `paidAt`); this migration brings the rows
+ * imported under the old behaviour in line.
+ *
+ * Scope: rows with `imported_pdf_path` set — i.e. historical documents,
+ * never invoices issued by picpeak itself. For those, no real payment
+ * date was ever captured (the column held the import timestamp), so the
+ * issue date is the best available anchor. Note: `paid_at`/`sent_at` are
+ * operational timestamps, not part of the invoice's immutable legal
+ * content — correcting an import-time bug on them doesn't alter the
+ * issued document.
+ *
+ * Idempotent: re-runs just re-assign the same issue_date value.
