Exclude legacy sample jobs from public Find Work

[profilesearch]

Summary

Follow-up to #116. Public production readback correctly restored legitimate jobs #24–#27, but also surfaced six persisted legacy sample jobs because three historical seed-employer identities were absent from the consolidated SEEDED_SAMPLE_EMAILS set.

This hotfix:

• Adds the three verified legacy sample-employer identities to the shared exclusion set.
• Applies automatically to every existing seed consumer: login blocking, platform stats, public services list/detail, and public jobs list/detail.
• Extends the public-job lifecycle regression to cover all three legacy identities in reviewing status.
• Does not delete or mutate any production job, application, account, order, or payment record.

TDD evidence

RED before implementation:

• Public-list regression expected 2 legitimate accepting jobs but received 5 because the three legacy sample employers were not excluded.

GREEN after implementation:

• Focused regression: passed.
• Full backend: 397 passed.
• Security/static/shell/performance/syntax/diff checks: passed.

Production verification plan

After deployment, read-only checks will require:

• Railway health reports the new merge version.
• Public GET /jobs returns exactly jobs feat: add autonomous AI QA service system #24–feat: add AI QA support and product content pages #27.
• All four are reviewing and remain application-eligible.
• Jobs feat: add verified SQLite backup endpoint #11–Add concierge task draft funnel #16 are absent from public browse and return 404 from public job detail.
• Desktop/mobile Find Work displays the four legitimate jobs without sample inventory or browser errors.
