Paul Rastoin ba5cb6ba15 fix(server): repair missing keyValuePair.applicationId on 2.23 upgrades (#23272)
Fixes #23254

## Problem

Upgrading a self-hosted instance from `2.23.x` to `2.24.0` leaves
`core.keyValuePair` without the `applicationId` column. Database-backed
config loading then fails on startup and on every refresh (~every 15s)
with:

```
column KeyValuePairEntity.applicationId does not exist
```

The frontend shows "Unable to reach the backend".

## Root cause

`AddApplicationIdToKeyValuePairFastInstanceCommand` was added in #23089
(after `2.23.x` shipped) but registered under the already-released
`2.23.0` segment:

```ts
@RegisteredInstanceCommand('2.23.0', 1784659343818)
```

The upgrade cursor is **positional and forward-only**:

- `resolveStartCursor` resumes at `lastAttemptedIndex + 1`. A
fully-upgraded `2.23.x` instance has its cursor at the last `2.23`
workspace command, which sits *after* this newly-inserted fast command
in the sequence. So the runner steps right over it and the DDL never
runs.
- The upgrade-aware metadata layer decides "applied" the same way
(`stepIndex < currentCursor` in
`upgrade-aware-entity-metadata.adapter.ts`). Since the step index is
below the cursor, the column is considered applied and is **not** hidden
from TypeORM SELECTs, so every query references a column that was never
created.

Fresh `2.24.0` installs replay the whole sequence, so only `2.23.x ->
2.24.0` upgrades are affected. The instance log `1 fast instance ... for
2.24.0` confirms the command landed in the `2.23.0` bundle rather than
`2.24.0`.

## Fix

- Add `RepairKeyValuePairApplicationIdFastInstanceCommand` under the
current version (`2.24.0`) with a fresh timestamp, so it sorts last in
the sequence and runs for every existing instance regardless of cursor
position. Its DDL mirrors the original command and is fully idempotent
(`ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS`, `DROP INDEX IF EXISTS` + recreate, `ADD
VALUE IF NOT EXISTS`), so it is a no-op on healthy instances. `down()`
is intentionally empty: the column lifecycle is owned by the `2.23.0`
introduction command.
- Repoint the entity's `@WasIntroducedInUpgrade` to the new command so
the column stays hidden from queries until the repair has actually run,
eliminating the error window during the migration itself.

## Notes

- `2.24.0` (`TWENTY_CURRENT_VERSION`) is the correct target: the upgrade
sequence only covers previous + current versions, so a command under
`2.25.0` (a next version) would not run. If a version bump lands before
this merges, the command should be moved to the new current version.
- Follow-up worth considering: nothing currently prevents registering a
command under a version in `TWENTY_PREVIOUS_VERSIONS`. A startup
validation rejecting that would have caught this at PR time.
