feat: automatic mutation audit logging for all non-super-admin users

Implement withMutationAudit middleware in tRPC that automatically logs
every successful mutation for non-SUPER_ADMIN users. Captures procedure
path, sanitized input (passwords/tokens redacted), user role, IP, and
user agent. Applied to all procedure types except superAdminProcedure.

- Input sanitization: strips sensitive fields, truncates long strings
  (500 chars), limits array size (20 items), caps nesting depth (4)
- Entity ID auto-extraction from common input patterns (id, userId,
  projectId, roundId, etc.)
- Action names derived from procedure path (e.g., evaluation.submit
  becomes EVALUATION_SUBMIT)
- Audit page updated with new action types and entity types for
  filtering auto-generated entries
- Failures silently caught — audit logging never breaks operations
