Subject: [PATCH] Fix server functions failing when called from backend code
 (#4908)

* fix(fullstack-macro): allow server functions to be called without HTTP context

Server functions can now be invoked directly from server-side code without
requiring an HTTP request context. When called outside an HTTP handler,
extractors will use default values instead of failing, matching the behavior
of the old server_fn implementation.

Closes #4907

* fix(fullstack-macro): allow server functions without extractors to be called from backend

Functions with no server extractors use Default::default() and work from backend code.
Functions with extractors still require HTTP context.

Closes #4907
