mariosemes 37425812e0 Add real-time per-store search progress via SSE streaming
Backend: new /api/search/stream SSE endpoint that emits events
as each store completes: start (store list), store_complete
(results + duration), store_error, and done (final meta).

Frontend: results page now shows live progress per store with
spinning indicators while searching, checkmarks when done, and
X marks on errors. Each store chip shows product count and
response time. Results stream into the table as stores complete
instead of waiting for all stores to finish.
