Subject: [PATCH] feat: seed /live recently-edited from SQLite history

Query SQLite for most recently edited documents on mount, so the
recently-edited section includes historical edits (not just real-time).
Converts ISO8601 timestamps to Unix epoch for uniform sorting with
real-time edit broadcasts.
