Partition hrrr_profiles by valid_time for query performance

54M row table partitioned into date-range partitions. Queries with
valid_time filter only scan relevant partitions. Prune now uses
partition-aware DELETE. Fix tests for partitioned constraint behavior
and removed sort-click tests (grouped table uses URL params).
