fix(dashboard): paginate recent activity feed with a size picker

With real data the feed showed 20 rows by default and filled most of
the viewport. Switched to a 5-row default with an inline size picker
(5 / 10 / 20 / 50) so users choose how much history is visible.

- Dashboard page bumps the fetch from 20 → 50 so every size option is
  already in memory. Switching sizes is a pure client-side slice, no
  round trip.
- ActivityFeed owns the pageSize state, renders "Showing N of M"
  plus a button group in the footer. The smallest option is always
  enabled; larger options unlock only once we have enough rows to
  meaningfully reveal more (e.g. "10" enables once loaded > 5).
- Existing "View all" header link left alone.
