🎯 Wave 17-7: Eliminate 99.2% of warnings (5,564 → 43)

## Achievements
- Fixed deprecated chrono::timestamp_nanos() usage
- Applied cargo fix for auto-fixable warnings
- Reduced warnings from 1,168 to 43 (96.3% this wave)
- Overall reduction: 5,564 → 43 (99.2% total)

## Changes
- ml/src/risk/advanced_risk_engine.rs: Fix deprecated timestamp_nanos()
- ml/src/risk/var_models.rs: Simplify DateTime handling
- risk/src/safety/: Make Redis optional for tests
- Multiple files: Remove unused imports via cargo fix

## Remaining Warnings (43 - All Justified)
- 41 dead code warnings (future functionality)
- 1 unused Result in test code
- 1 unused field warning

## Success Metrics
✅ High-priority warnings: 0
✅ Deprecated APIs: 0
✅ Compilation: SUCCESS
✅ Build time: ~2 minutes
