feat(admin): empty states for users, backups, login-overview, api-tokens, feedback

Replaces blank rectangles in 6 admin sub-routes with the EmptyState
primitive. Each surface now shows an icon, localized title +
description, and (where it makes sense) a primary action so a fresh
admin always knows what to do next.

- /admin/users — Users icon, filter-aware copy, "Show all users" reset
  CTA when a filter is active.
- /admin/backups — Database icon, "Backup now" duplicate CTA inside the
  empty card so the action is right next to the explanation.
- /admin/login-overview — ScrollText icon, splits "no auth events" from
  the safer "no failed sign-ins"; reset CTA on the failed-only filter.
- /admin/api-tokens — Key icon, copy points to native client sign-in
  and Settings -> Account where tokens are issued.
- /admin/feedback — Inbox icon, compact-size, per-tab description.
- /admin overview audit-preview — compact + plain so it nests inside
  the parent card without doubling the dashed border.

New unit tests for the users + backups paths assert the primitive
mounts (role=status / dashed border), the localized strings render,
and the reset/CTA actions appear only in the right contexts.
