Fix Sentry not instrumenting Express, bump version to 1.10.2

express, cors, and @prisma/client were required at the top of
backend/src/index.js before Sentry.init() ran, so Sentry's
auto-instrumentation (which patches those modules via a require hook)
missed them — startup logged "[Sentry] express is not instrumented".
Sentry.init() now runs immediately after dotenv.config(), before any
of the libraries it instruments are required.

+- Sentry wasn't instrumenting Express (`[Sentry] express is not instrumented` at startup): `express`, `cors`, and `@prisma/client` were required at the top of `backend/src/index.js` before `Sentry.init()` ran, but Sentry's auto-instrumentation patches those modules via a require hook that only works if `Sentry.init()` runs first. `Sentry.init()` now runs immediately after `dotenv.config()`, before any of the libraries it instruments are required.
