feat(content): remove artificial 500-article generation cap

- fetch_template_data: default limit=0 (all rows); skip LIMIT clause when 0
- generate_articles: default limit=0
- worker handle_generate_articles: default to 0 instead of 500
- Remove "limit": 500 from all 4 enqueue payloads
- template_generate GET handler: use count_template_data() instead of fetch(limit=501) probe
