- frontend/Dockerfile.e2e: bump base image to mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:
v1.61.1-noble to match the Playwright 1.61.1 npm bump (browser revision
mismatch was failing all e2e specs), and corepack pnpm@8 -> pnpm@10.10.0 to
match the pnpm bump and the v9 lockfile.
- release.yml validate: pnpm 10 forwards 'test -- --runInBand' literally as
'jest -- --runInBand' (treated as a path pattern, 0 tests). Drop the extra
separator: 'pnpm test --runInBand'.
