feat: username/password authentication for admin and merchant panels

- Add PasswordHasher utility (PBKDF2/SHA-256, 100k iterations)
- Add Username + PasswordHash fields to Employee and SystemAdmin entities
- EF migration: AddPasswordLogin (nullable columns on both tables)
- Meezi.API: POST /api/auth/login (employee password login, CHOOSE_CAFE support)
- Meezi.API: PUT/DELETE /api/cafes/{id}/employees/{id}/credentials (Owner/Manager only)
- Meezi.Admin.API: POST /api/admin/auth/login + PUT /api/admin/auth/password
- Dashboard login page: OTP / Password tabs
- Admin login page: OTP / Password tabs
- HR screen: new Credentials tab for setting employee username/password
- PlatformDataSeeder: ensure system admin + integration settings in production
- Trial countdown banner: updated deadline to 1 Tir 1405 (Jun 22)
- i18n: fa/en/ar updated for all new UI strings
