fix(FN-920): improve error handling in subtask breakdown SSE stream

- Handle empty error messages in subtask-breakdown session by falling back to 'Unknown error'
- Fix backend SSE routes to coerce error data to string and handle missing message
- Improve frontend connectSubtaskStream to validate parsed error data before displaying
- Add tests for error display in SubtaskBreakdownModal component
