Fixed E2E route teardown races

[kevinansfield]

What changed

• Wait for active Playwright page route handlers to finish before fixture teardown closes the browser context.

Why

A page.route() handler can still be reading a fetched response after the test body returns. Closing the context at that point disposes the response and surfaces an unhandled apiResponse.json: Response has been disposed error, as seen in this flaky CI run.

Using Playwright's wait teardown behavior drains active handlers without swallowing genuine handler errors.

Walkthrough

The Playwright page fixture now calls page.unrouteAll({ behavior: 'wait' }) after test execution completes, removing active routes before the remaining teardown logic runs.
