TudorandClaude Fable 5 a524cdc591 fix(api): survive missing has_sixth_form column and numpy bool serialization
- data_loader.load_school_data_as_dataframe now catches a ProgrammingError
  whose message mentions has_sixth_form (psycopg2 UndefinedColumn) and
  retries with a NULL-AS-has_sixth_form query variant, so the API keeps
  serving data (and the app.py column-fallback branch stays reachable)
  even before the nightly pipeline has rebuilt marts.dim_school.
- utils.convert_to_native now handles numpy.bool_ so GET /api/schools/{urn}
  doesn't 500 once has_sixth_form is a populated bool-dtype column.
- Update the now-stale comment on the app.py age-range fallback branch.
