Fix: Generate slugs for users created during app submission

[Copilot]

Users created in api/submissions.ts were inserted with slug: null, permanently breaking profile routing since api/users.ts only generates slugs for new users, not updates.

Changes

• Import slug utilities (generateSlugFromEmail, generateUniqueSlug) in api/submissions.ts
• Apply same slug generation logic as api/users.ts when creating placeholder users

Before

await db.insert(users).values({
  id: submittedByUserId,
  email: submittedByEmail,
  name: null,
  slug: null,  // ❌ breaks routing
});

After

const baseSlug = generateSlugFromEmail(submittedByEmail);
const existingSlugsQuery = await db
  .select({ slug: users.slug })
  .from(users)
  .where(eq(users.slug, baseSlug));

const existingSlugs = existingSlugsQuery.map(row => row.slug).filter(Boolean) as string[];
const uniqueSlug = generateUniqueSlug(baseSlug, existingSlugs);

await db.insert(users).values({
  id: submittedByUserId,
  email: submittedByEmail,
  name: null,
  slug: uniqueSlug,  // ✅ routing works
});
