Lukas 7ba1cf7ca2 feat: Implement global request lifecycle cancellation on route transitions ...

Adds a navigation-aware request cancellation mechanism that automatically
aborts all route-specific API requests when the user navigates to a
different route. This prevents silent state-update errors from responses
arriving after component unmount and conserves bandwidth by cancelling
now-irrelevant requests.

Key additions:
- NavigationCancellationContext: Context for managing route-specific signals
- NavigationCancellationProvider: Provider that detects route changes and
  aborts all signals from the previous route
- useNavigationAbortSignal hook: Allows components to subscribe to
  navigation-aware cancellation signals
- Comprehensive tests for the cancellation lifecycle
- Documentation in Web-Development.md for request lifecycle policy

The provider is placed in the app hierarchy between BrowserRouter and
AuthProvider, ensuring consistent cancellation behavior across all routes.

Long-lived background tasks (polling, session validation) can opt-out by
managing their own AbortController lifecycle.

Closes #23 from Tasks.md: No global cancellation policy on route transitions
