fix(backtest): roll back the session after a swallowed DB failure

Every DB call in run_backtest is best-effort so one unreadable ticker cannot
abort the whole replay, but the handlers swallowed the exception without
clearing the transaction. asyncpg then reports "current transaction is
aborted" for every later statement, and the first unguarded one — the report
write — surfaced it as the job error, long after the real cause.

Add _rollback_quietly at the three swallowing sites (benchmark load, parallel
fetch, sequential replay), matching the guard price_service already uses.

Load plain symbols instead of Ticker instances: a rollback expires ORM objects
held across it, and touching an expired attribute afterwards triggers sync
lazy-loading, which raises on an AsyncSession. rr_scanner_service hit this
same trap. Only .symbol was ever used.
