viewers: render timestamps in browser-local time

Spotted on the SFM webapp event modal — "Received by server at" was
showing the raw ISO string "2026-05-27T21:59:57.213043Z" because we
were assigning ev.timestamp / src.captured_at directly to the
textContent of the modal fields, bypassing the existing _fmtTs()
helper that wraps them in toLocaleString().

Net effect for operators: confusing "21:59 vs it's 6 PM" mismatch
when the displayed UTC timestamp didn't match wall-clock time.  The
values were always correct; the display was just ambiguous.

After this fix:
  - "Recorded at" (naive ISO from BW = unit local time) renders
    cleanly as the unit wrote it: "5/27/2026, 6:00:13 AM"
  - "Received by server at" (UTC with Z suffix) converts to browser
    local: "5/27/2026, 5:59:57 PM"
  - Timestamp column in the history table already used _fmtTs —
    unchanged
  - Same fix applied to the standalone /events page (sidebar event
    list + meta header) via a new _fmtTsLocal helper

Note: did NOT add file-mtime-on-watcher-PC tracking as a separate
"Called in at" column — discussed and decided created_at is close
enough for schedule-compliance monitoring (worst case lag = watcher
poll interval ~60s, indistinguishable from BW write time at the
operationally-relevant resolution).
