Subject: [PATCH] fix(pwa): disable service worker in dev across all 8 vite
 configs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Was: every standalone (and the hub) registered a service worker
during \`npm run dev\` via VitePWA's devOptions.enabled = true.

Problem: the dev SW caches index.html and the JS bundle on first
load and survives across vite restarts. Any code change that
required a server restart (e.g. fixing a vite.config.ts merge
conflict) resulted in browsers continuing to serve the cached
pre-restart bundle until the user manually unregistered the SW.
This caused the hub at localhost:5173 to redirect to /market on
refresh — the cached bundle was from the broken-config period
which still had the old monolithic main app's market route.

PWA features (offline, install prompts, manifest) are still tested
by running:
  npm run preview            # for the hub
  npm run preview:<name>     # for any standalone

against a real production build, which is the more accurate
environment for PWA verification anyway.

Recovery for anyone with a stale SW lingering in their browser
(needed once after pulling, then never again):
  1. DevTools → Application → Service Workers → Unregister
  2. DevTools → Application → Storage → Clear site data
  3. Hard reload (Ctrl-Shift-R)
