Add staff email client with WebSocket real-time updates

Implements a complete email client for platform staff members:

Backend:
- Add routing_mode field to PlatformEmailAddress (PLATFORM/STAFF)
- Create staff_email app with models for folders, emails, attachments, labels
- IMAP service for fetching emails with folder mapping
- SMTP service for sending emails with attachment support
- Celery tasks for periodic sync and full sync operations
- WebSocket consumer for real-time notifications
- Comprehensive API viewsets with filtering and actions

Frontend:
- Thunderbird-style three-pane email interface
- Multi-account support with drag-and-drop ordering
- Email composer with rich text editor
- Email viewer with thread support
- Real-time WebSocket updates for new emails and sync status
- 94 unit tests covering models, serializers, views, services, and consumers
