fix(idaa): fix country/subdivision/timezone dropdowns — switch to in-memory sort

- Country and state/province fields were showing as plain text inputs because
  liveQuery used orderBy() on non-indexed columns, causing silent Dexie errors
  that left the store as undefined indefinitely.
- Fix: replaced orderBy() with toArray() + in-memory sort across all three
  lookup types (country, country_subdivision, time_zone).
- Sort convention matches Aether backend: sort DESC (higher = first, NULL=0
  last), then name ASC — puts priority entries at the top.
- Added db_lookups.ts (IDB schema for lookup tables) and updated core__countries,
  core__country_subdivisions, core__time_zones to IDB-backed SWR pattern.
- Affected: archive edit, archive content edit, recovery meeting edit.
