feat: lazy graph expansion - hub station selection, on-demand /search, and transfer depth limiting

- Remove Population field from HubStation; hub selection now uses only outgoing flights criterion
- Simplify SelectHubStations criteria (minPopulation removed from function calls)
- Add synthetic edge fallback in FindRoute when lazy expansion fails
- Add ResetCircuitBreaker helper to yandex client for test reset
- Update test criteria to match new hub selection logic
- Remove TestLazySearchCacheIntegration (replaced by integration tests)
