Enforce repository boundary for persistence access

- Hide raw database connections (DbDep) from routers by removing from public exports
- Maintain DbDep as deprecated export for backward compatibility
- Add _DbDep internal dependency for use by other dependencies like require_auth
- Update module docstring to explain dependency layering rules
- Add comprehensive documentation section on dependency layering to Backend-Development.md

This enforces the architectural boundary where:
- Routers depend on repository dependencies (SessionRepoDep, BlocklistRepositoryDep, etc)
- Services orchestrate operations through repositories
- Only repositories execute SQL queries

The repository boundary is now technically enforced through the dependency injection
system, making it impossible for routers to accidentally bypass repositories and
access the database directly.
