fix(news): remove paid-tier 'from' param, add User-Agent, log status+body on error

- Drop the 'from' date filter — it's a paid GNews feature, causes 403 on free tier
- Add User-Agent header to httpx client; urllib default passes, httpx default blocked
- Log actual HTTP status code for every request (INFO) and response body on non-200
- Cache neutral result on 400/401/403/429 to avoid hammering the quota
- Remove unused _iso_days_ago() helper and 'days' param from get_sentiment()
