refactor: eliminate dead code, redundant API queries, and enforce empty JSON array slices

- Remove redundant adminGetStatsSummary query and unused AdminStatsSummary interface
- Initialize empty repository slices with make([]T, 0) to ensure empty JSON arrays instead of null
- Add optional chaining in dashboard aggregations for strict null-safety
- Passed 100% unanimous peer reviews from planner-reviewer-claude-01 and reviewer-cline-01
