Performance: Add DB indexes for common query/sort patterns (#13167)

Adds indexes on Document.checksum, Document.page_count, and a composite
(owner, created) index on Document, plus composite (field, value_*)
indexes on CustomFieldInstance for each typed value column.

Benchmarked against a 100k-document / 200k-custom-field-instance SQLite
dataset: Document.checksum lookups ~69x faster, page_count sort ~40x,
owner+created list queries ~6x. CustomFieldInstance composite indexes
show large gains (10-24x) on realistic narrow-selectivity queries
matching the workflow scheduler and custom-field search code paths.
