fix(refboard): cap texture dimensions and add server-side image resizing

Prevents WebGL OOM errors when loading 90+ items by:
- Capping texture requests to 2048px via ?w= query param
- Adding Sharp-based server-side resize in image proxy endpoint
- Using Assets.unload() instead of texture.destroy() for proper cleanup
- Reducing GPU memory budget from 512MB to 256MB
