Fix Bird search: strip noise words + fix date parsing

1. Add _extract_core_subject() to strip noise words before X search
   - X search is literal keyword matching, not semantic
   - "best open claw usecases" → "open claw" (27 results vs 0)

2. Fix ISO date detection bug
   - Was: if "T" in created_at (matched "Tue" in "Tue Feb 03...")
   - Now: if created_at[10] == "T" (proper ISO separator check)
   - Dates now parse correctly: (2026-02-03) instead of (date unknown)
