feat(KB-502): add dashboard multi-project hooks and project API routes

- Add project API routes for multi-project backend integration
- Create useProjects hook for listing and managing registered projects
- Create useCurrentProject hook for current project selection and switching
- Create useProjectHealth hook for real-time project health metrics
- Create useActivityLog hook with ActivityLogModal integration
- Add comprehensive test coverage for all hooks (useProjects, useCurrentProject, useActivityLog)
- Add test setup utilities for React Query mocking
