fix: stream large API responses to stop heap-exhaustion truncation

Serving /api/history (and /api/forecasts) built a ~12 KB String +
JsonDocument every 15 s; over days this fragmented the ESP8266 heap until
the TCP stack could no longer send a full response, causing the web page
to fail with ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH. Stream both array endpoints via
chunked transfer (small stack buffer, no big allocations). Add free-heap
to /api/current and Serial, plus a low-memory safety restart (history is
persisted first).
