Backend tests run on SQLite by default (78 passed, 1 skipped); no Postgres needed

- conftest: default SHONAR_TEST_DATABASE_URL is a temp SQLite file, matching
  the bundled-lite engine; set the env var to a PG URL to exercise that path
- models.py: add sqlite_where to the two partial unique indexes — without it
  SQLite built a FULL unique index on recording_id (WHERE not carried over),
  wrongly blocking a second export asset per recording
- test_m9: pass UUID objects (not str) to direct ORM inserts/gets; SQLite's
  GUID bind processor rejects strings (asyncpg tolerated them)

Verified: pytest -q = 78 passed, 1 skipped; ruff check clean
