fix: enable virtualization for worksheet preview by limiting SSR to 3 pages

**Root Cause:**
Server was generating ALL pages during SSR and passing them as initialData,
which pre-populated the entire loadedPages Map. This bypassed the
virtualization system because pagesToFetch was always empty.

**Changes:**

1. **page.tsx** - Only generate first 3 pages on server
   - Changed generateWorksheetPreview() to include startPage/endPage params
   - Server now generates min(3, totalPages) instead of all pages
   - Added clear comments explaining SSR vs virtualization split

2. **WorksheetPreview.tsx** - Cleaned up debug logging
   - Removed all console.log statements added during investigation
   - Virtualization logic unchanged (was already correct)

**Result:**
- Initial page load: Fast (only 3 pages)
- Scrolling: Progressive loading with visible network activity
- 100-page worksheet: Loads incrementally as user scrolls
- Memory usage: Only loaded pages in memory, not entire set
