Add an `is_admin` boolean column (default `false`) to the `users` table via an Alembic migration.

## Checklist

- [ ] Create Alembic migration adding `is_admin: Mapped[bool]` column with `server_default="false"`
- [ ] Update `User` model in `backend/src/app/models/user.py`
- [ ] Run migration and verify column exists
- [ ] Seed a test admin user (or document how to set `is_admin=true` via SQL)

## Files to change

- `backend/src/app/models/user.py` — add `is_admin` field
- `backend/src/app/alembic/versions/` — new migration
