Fix 3 P0 issues from code review

FCR-1: Set ignoreBuildErrors to false in next.config.mjs
FCR-2: Default API_URL to production backend so static builds work correctly;
       .env.local overrides to localhost for local dev
FCR-3: Remove createConversation call in handleSend; generate UUID client-side
       and let backend streamChat auto-create the conversation to avoid duplicate writes
