Simplify onboarding, settings, and test helpers to reflect mandatory auth.
Update environment examples, Docker and deployment docs, and CI/test configs.
Remove no-auth-specific UI flows, test cases, and feature toggles.
Implement AbortController in ConfigContext, PDFContext, and preference sync to prevent race conditions during session changes or rapid navigation.
