Process liveness — wired to k8s livenessProbe.

Returns 200 while the Python process is alive. Has no dependency check by
design: restarting a pod can't fix a Supabase outage, and the thrashing
only deepens an incident. See ARD-728 and `app/health.py` for context.

Declared `async` deliberately (ARD-2136). A sync `def` endpoint is
dispatched to Starlette's threadpool, which is the same pool
`check_supabase_ready` occupies via `asyncio.to_thread` on every 5s
readiness probe. Liveness then queues behind dependency work it is
documented not to depend on, times out, and the pod is killed anyway —
exactly the thrashing ARD-728 set out to prevent. Answering on the event
loop removes that coupling.
