Add a front-end browser check, so the pages are testable and not just readable

server/smoketest.py proves the API works; nothing proved the PAGES work. That gap
is why users.js, wp-sidenav.js and the extracted console.css shipped unexecuted and
had to be written up as a known issue instead of verified. This closes the gap with
a tool rather than a one-off, so the next front-end change is cheap to check.

  tests/cdp.py           a minimal DevTools Protocol client — hand-rolled stdlib
                         WebSocket (handshake, masked frames), browser discovery for
                         Edge/Chrome across platforms, and process teardown.
  tests/browser_check.py the fixture and 71 assertions.

Stdlib only, matching smoketest.py's rule: these have to run on a plain Python
install on whatever machine is to hand. No pip, no Selenium, no node.

Self-contained — it builds a throwaway database, seeds a fixture, starts its own
uvicorn on a free port, drives the browser, and tears everything down. The real
database is never touched. Sessions come from minting a token with the app's own
auth.create_token() rather than scripting the login form.

What it asserts, beyond "no JavaScript errors on boot" (the thing that actually
went unverified): the three role-dependent renderings of the directory, one-line
rows and no sideways scroll, the roles each caller may grant, the project-access
dialog opening and closing, the drawer's open/Escape/scrim/focus/aria behaviour and
its role gating, ?project= carried only onto project-scoped links, and — the reason
this matters most — that admin.html still has its tokens, cards, headings and dense
sticky tables after console.css was lifted out of its inline <style>.

Three things the build had to get right, each learned the hard way:

  - Teardown kills the browser's whole process tree AND sweeps anything still
    holding the unique temp profile, matched on that path so a browser window the
    user has open is never touched. proc.kill() alone left 98 strays.
  - Launching retries with a fresh profile and port: a browser can hand off to
    another instance and exit rc=0 without ever binding the debugging port.
  - Cleanup waits for the server to exit and disposes the harness's own SQLAlchemy
    engine before removing the temp directory, or the open SQLite file blocks the
    delete and ignore_errors hides it.

The fixture includes an account on a project the super user cannot see, without
which the admin and the super user would see the same number of rows and the
scoping assertion would prove nothing.

Documented in DEPLOYMENT.md next to the smoke test. 71/71 across repeated runs,
leaving no stray processes or temp directories.

"""Front-end check for the Work Package Suite — runs the pages in a real browser.
server/smoketest.py proves the API works. This proves the PAGES work: that they
boot without a JavaScript error, that the role-dependent renderings are what they
should be, and that the layout rules the console pages depend on are in effect.
Those are the things no amount of static analysis can settle, and the reason this
exists is that they went unverified once — see the git history for KNOWN-ISSUES 3.
Self-contained by default: it creates a throwaway SQLite database, seeds a fixture
(two projects, one admin, one Project Super User, one plain member, an account
spanning both jobs), starts its own uvicorn, drives headless Edge or Chrome over
the DevTools Protocol, and tears all of it down. Your real database is never
touched. Stdlib only — no pip, matching server/smoketest.py.
python tests/browser_check.py # everything, self-contained
python tests/browser_check.py --keep-server # leave the server up to poke at
WP_BROWSER=/path/to/chrome python tests/browser_check.py
Sessions are established by minting a token with the app's own auth.create_token()
and setting it as the wp_session cookie — the same cookie the server would issue,
without scripting the login form.
Exit codes: 0 all checks passed · 1 one or more failed · 2 could not run (no
browser found, or the server would not start). 2 is distinct on purpose: "I could
not test this" is not the same answer as "this is broken".
