fix(dashboard): keep SSE alive + seed camera list via REST

The dashboard showed "No Cameras Connected" despite the API returning the
camera:
- middleware.Timeout + http.Server.WriteTimeout (10s) cancelled the
  long-lived /api/v1/events/stream every 10s, before any 30s status event
  could arrive — so the SSE-fed store never populated. Drop the global
  request timeout and set WriteTimeout=0 (closed-LAN kiosk).
- The SPA never seeded from GET /api/v1/cameras (SSE only pushes on change).
  Fetch the list once on mount and setCameras().
