Clean up console logging and fix platform detection issues

- Reduce migration/platform logging verbosity in development mode (~80-90% less noise)
- Fix AbsurdSQL platform check to support 'development' alongside 'web'
- Add missing WebPlatformService methods (isWorker, initSharedArrayBuffer)
- Fix Electron API endpoint resolution to prevent JSON parsing errors
- Prevent circular database logging that caused [DB-PREVENTED-INFO] spam

Console now shows only essential information while preserving all errors/warnings
