fix(electron): improve SQLite initialization and timing handling

- Add structured SQLite configuration in main process with separate settings for
  initialization and operations
- Implement proper retry logic with configurable attempts and delays
- Add connection pool management to prevent resource exhaustion
- Reduce initialization timeout from 30s to 10s for faster feedback
- Add proper cleanup of timeouts and resources
- Maintain consistent retry behavior in preload script

This change addresses the cascade of SQLite timeout errors seen in the logs
by implementing proper timing controls and resource management. The main
process now handles initialization more robustly with configurable retries,
while the preload script maintains its existing retry behavior for
compatibility.

Security Impact:
- No security implications
- Improves application stability
- Prevents resource exhaustion

Testing:
- Verify SQLite initialization completes within new timeout
- Confirm retry behavior works as expected
- Check that connection pool limits are respected
- Ensure proper cleanup of resources
