security: prevent error information disclosure (V-013, CVSS 7.5)

Add secure error handling to prevent internal details leaking.

Changes:
- gateway/platforms/api_server.py:
  - Add _handle_error_securely() function
  - Logs full error details with reference ID internally
  - Returns generic error message to client
  - Updates all cron job exception handlers to use secure handler
