refactor(badges): standardize reactive search and fix text filtering

- Corrected 'search__event_badge' to use the valid 'default_qry_str' field name, resolving 400 errors during text search.
- Re-implemented the standardized debounced search pattern in '+page.svelte' with a robust Search Guard to eliminate loops.
- Hardened Fast Path local filtering to match the 'Badge' schema and synchronized result sorting with API revalidation.
- Updated 'ae_comp__badge_search.svelte' and 'ae_comp__badge_obj_li.svelte' to align with the shared data pattern and fixed Lucide icon imports.
- Ensured 'events_loc' store initialization for new search-related fields.
