ListDumpFiles ran ValidateDump (line-by-line scan) for every dump on every ~5-min
RefreshCache cycle — wasted I/O+CPU on large customer dumps. ListDumpFiles now takes
an optional cached(name,size,mod) lookup; on a (size+modtime) match it reuses the
prior result and skips ValidateDump. settings.DBValidationCache gains Size+ModTime;
listAllDumpFiles builds the lookup from the persisted cache and writes back only fresh
validations (cache miss), so an unchanged dump triggers neither a re-validation nor a
settings.json write each cycle. nil cached = legacy validate-always (back-compat).
Tests: cache-hit skips validate (sentinel), cache-miss validates, nil validates.
