fix: close two real money/spend races (Tracecoin double-credit, unbounded AI overspend)
Asked to review Tracecoin and AI implementation safety. Found and fixed
two exploitable TOCTOU races, plus a data-integrity bug:

1. apps/payments/src/main.rs::verify_payment — the PayU success callback
   is called directly by the client (not a server-to-server webhook), so
   a user fully controls how many times they replay a valid success
   payload. The payment "is it still PENDING" check and the "mark
   SUCCESS + credit wallet" write were separate, non-transactional
   queries — concurrent replays could both pass the check before either
   commits, double- (or N-times-) crediting the wallet for one real
   payment. Now wrapped in a single transaction with
   `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE` on the payments row, so a second concurrent
   call blocks until the first commits, then correctly sees the row is
   no longer PENDING (Postgres re-evaluates the WHERE clause via
   EvalPlanQual after the lock is granted).

2. crates/db/src/models/ai/repository.rs — UserAiSubscriptionRepository
   had the exact same shape of bug: apps/users/src/ai/credits.rs::
   charge_feature read the subscription, checked daily-limit and credit
   balance, THEN issued two separate unconditional `UPDATE ... SET x =
   x + $1` statements with no WHERE guard on the balance. N concurrent
   requests from one user all pass the check before any deduction
   lands, running up unlimited LLM API spend (this endpoint is called
   before/around real LiteLLM calls, so the cost is real). Added
   UserAiSubscriptionRepository::try_charge — a single conditional
   UPDATE that checks the daily limit and credit balance and deducts
   atomically, returning None (mapped to the existing error types) if
   either check fails.

3. apps/cron/src/tasks/auto_apply.rs — daily_actions_used was being
   incremented twice per auto-applied job (once in the credit-deduct
   UPDATE, once more in a second, redundant UPDATE right after) —
   silently halving job seekers' effective daily auto-apply limit.
   Removed the redundant second UPDATE.

Also added non-negative CHECK constraints directly to the live
database (tracecoin_wallets.balance/reserved,
user_ai_subscriptions.daily_actions_used/monthly_credits_used/
purchased_credits_used) as defense in depth — belt-and-suspenders in
case a future code path reintroduces a similar bug.
