d8d8872414 Fix (beta): compute num_notes via a subquery instead of Count()+distinct() (#13182)
DocumentViewSet.get_queryset() annotated num_notes via a LEFT JOIN to
documents_note plus Count(), which requires the database to aggregate
every matching document's note count before it can even sort or paginate
the result -- on every list request, not just filtered ones.

Switched to the same correlated-subquery pattern already used two lines
above for effective_content (Subquery + OuterRef), which Django compiles
to portable SQL across sqlite/postgresql/mariadb rather than a join-based
aggregate.

Benchmarked against a 100k synthetic document corpus (Postgres): the
plain document list request dropped from ~2.2-2.4s to ~0.9-1.0s. Note
that a separate, larger cost remains in the same queryset's plain
.distinct() call, which still forces a full sort over every matching
row regardless of this fix -- tracked separately, not addressed here.
