Kpa-clawbot b7c280c20a fix: drop/filter packets with null hash or timestamp (closes #871) (#993)
## Summary

Closes #871

The `/api/packets` endpoint could return packets with `null` hash or
timestamp fields. This was caused by legacy data in SQLite (rows with
empty `hash` or `NULL`/empty `first_seen`) predating the ingestor's
existing validation guard (`if hash == "" { return false, nil }` at
`cmd/ingestor/db.go:610`).

## Root Cause

`cmd/server/store.go` `filterPackets()` had no data-integrity guard.
Legacy rows with empty `hash` or `first_seen` were loaded into the
in-memory store and returned verbatim. The `strOrNil("")` helper then
serialized these as JSON `null`.

## Fix

Added a data-integrity predicate at the top of `filterPackets`'s scan
callback (`cmd/server/store.go:2278`):

```go
if tx.Hash == "" || tx.FirstSeen == "" {
    return false
}
```

This filters bad legacy rows at query time. The write path (ingestor)
already rejects empty hashes, so no new bad data enters.

## TDD Evidence

- **Red commit:** `15774c3` — test `TestIssue871_NoNullHashOrTimestamp`
asserts no packet in API response has null/empty hash or timestamp
- **Green commit:** `281fd6f` — adds the filter guard, test passes

## Testing

- `go test ./...` in `cmd/server` passes (full suite)
- Client-side defensive filter from PR #868 remains as defense-in-depth
