Open WebUI retires Peewee migration layer

Open WebUI deprecated its Peewee migration layer, completing the switch to Alembic for all schema management.

Open WebUI deprecated the Peewee migration layer [1]; Alembic now handles all schema migration. The commit notes that "Peewee migrations are no longer needed for any version >= 0.3.6," since the Alembic init migration already creates the equivalent schema. This is a cleanup for maintainers, not an end-user change, but developers with custom Peewee-based tooling should confirm they are on Alembic for schema updates.

The same effort removed dead Peewee connection wrappers [2] and deleted the unused legacy test suite [3] and unused Cypress tests [4]. A separate refactor modernizes imports and standardizes type hints and docstrings [5]. All changes are internal cleanup; no user-facing behavior changes here.
