Hardening: Restore V3 Search legacy compatibility and fix Hosted File specialized delete logic

- Restored legacy query aliases (qry_ae_obj_li__event, qry__event_file, etc.) across Event modules to fix build errors.
- Fixed Hosted File deletion logic in core__hosted_files.ts to use specialized /hosted_file/{id} endpoint with fake_delete support.
- Standardized ID field usage (hosted_file_id vs hosted_file_id_random) in Archive Content and Event File upload components.
- Updated TODO.md to reflect completed search restoration tasks.

     - [ ] **Global Rule:** Preserve `ft_qry`, `lk_qry`, and `and_qry` blocks as "sacred" business logic. Never put non-searchable fields in the POST body.
