feat(frontend): add Playwright E2E tests with CI workflow (#2279)

* feat(frontend): add Playwright E2E tests with CI workflow

Add end-to-end testing infrastructure using Playwright (Chromium only).
14 tests across 5 spec files cover landing page, chat workspace,
thread history, sidebar navigation, and agent chat — all with mocked
LangGraph/Backend APIs via network interception (zero backend dependency).

New files:
- playwright.config.ts — Chromium, 30s timeout, auto-start Next.js
- tests/e2e/utils/mock-api.ts — shared API mocks & SSE stream helpers
- tests/e2e/{landing,chat,thread-history,sidebar,agent-chat}.spec.ts
- .github/workflows/e2e-tests.yml — push main + PR trigger, paths filter

Updated: package.json, Makefile, .gitignore, CONTRIBUTING.md,
frontend/CLAUDE.md, frontend/AGENTS.md, frontend/README.md
