Reject fractional numeric values before normalization.

is_numeric(0.5) is true, and (int) 0.5 is 0. The helper therefore accepts 0.5, 1.5, and numeric strings such as "1.9". Creation then silently stores a different flag value. Compare the numeric value itself with 0 or 1 before casting it.

In `@backend/app/Chat/ServerSchedule.php` at line 46, Update the validation helper
containing the is_numeric check to compare the original numeric value directly
against 0 or 1 before casting, so fractional values and fractional numeric
strings are rejected while valid integer flags remain accepted.

Validate update flags before casting them.

ServerSchedule::updateSchedule() casts supplied is_active and is_processing values without calling isValidActiveFlag(). The HTTP update path passes decoded request fields directly to this method, so "yes" can be persisted as 0, while 2 can be persisted as 2. Validate each supplied flag before normalization and reject invalid values.

ServerSchedule::updateSchedule() to validate each supplied is_active and
is_processing value with isValidActiveFlag() before casting; reject invalid
values rather than persisting normalized or out-of-range values, while
preserving conversion of valid flags.

Add fractional-value rejection cases.

Add cases for 0.5, 1.5, "0.5", and "1.9". The current helper accepts these values because it casts before checking membership. The tests should lock the flag domain to exact numeric 0 or 1.
