feat(vue): parity gaps #50, #54, #61 — sort/filter, research modal, draft CL button

#50 Job Review list view — sort + filter controls:
- Sort by best match / newest first / company A-Z (client-side computed)
- Remote-only checkbox filter
- Job count indicator; filters reset on tab switch
- Remote badge on list items

#61 Cover letter generation from approved tab:
- '✨ Draft' button on each approved-list item → /apply/:id
- No extra API call; ApplyWorkspace handles generation from there

#54 Company research modal (all API endpoints already existed):
- CompanyResearchModal.vue: 3-state machine (empty→generating→ready)
  polling /research/task every 3s, displays all 7 research sections
  (company, leadership, talking points, tech, funding, red flags,
  accessibility), copy-to-clipboard for talking points, ↺ Refresh
- InterviewCard: new 'research' emit + '🔍 Research' button for
  phone_screen/interviewing/offer stages
- InterviewsView: wires modal with researchJobId/Title/AutoGen state;
  auto-opens modal with autoGenerate=true when a job is moved to
  phone_screen (mirrors Streamlit behaviour)
