Fix: Wealth Distribution Histogram behind Nginx proxy

Production Environment Fixes:
- Enhanced SocketIO configuration for proxy compatibility
- Added fallback polling mechanism when WebSocket fails
- Fixed environment configuration (FLASK_ENV vs FLASK_CONFIG)
- Added production-friendly debug logging for distribution chart
- Improved connection status monitoring and error handling

Proxy-Specific Improvements:
- Enhanced CORS and transport settings for SocketIO
- Fallback to HTTP polling when WebSocket connections fail
- Better error handling and retry mechanisms
- Debug logging that works in production mode

This should resolve the wealth distribution histogram issue
when running behind Nginx proxy in Docker containers.
