isRecordMatchingFilter throws on stale filter referencing missing custom field

https://sonarly.com/issue/11530?type=bug

The optimistic cache update crashes when iterating cached Apollo queries whose filters reference a custom relation field (`teamManagingThisPerson`) that no longer exists in the person object's metadata.

Fix: Replaced the hard `throw` in `isRecordMatchingFilter` (line 218) with `return true` when a filter key cannot be resolved to any field in the object's metadata.

**Why this fixes the bug:** When `triggerUpdateRecordOptimisticEffect` iterates over all cached Apollo queries for an object type, it calls `isRecordMatchingFilter` with each query's stored filter variables. If a cached query's filter references a custom field that was since deleted or deactivated (e.g., `teamManagingThisPerson` on `person`), the field lookup fails and the throw crashes the entire optimistic update flow.

**Why `return true`:** This treats an unresolvable filter condition as vacuously satisfied, meaning "this filter key doesn't constrain the result." This is safe because:
1. The server already returned correctly filtered data — the optimistic check only determines cache membership
2. Returning `true` preserves records in cached queries, avoiding incorrect eviction
3. The worst case is a brief UI inconsistency until the server response arrives, which is strictly better than a crash

The comment follows the team's existing short-form `//` comment style and explains the business logic (WHY), not the code (WHAT).
