Extracts the shared boot/serve plumbing out of live_server into
_boot_app + _serve helpers, then adds files_overlay_server: a
function-scoped fixture that monkey-patches LEFT4ME_ROOT to tmp_path
BEFORE create_app(), seeds a files-type Overlay owned by alice, and
populates the overlay root with one editable text file, one binary
file, and one nested folder. Sets up the surface area the Tier-1
files-overlay e2e tests need without duplicating the live_server
boilerplate.
Also exposes a top-level `login(page, base_url, ...)` helper so
future test modules can share it instead of re-pasting the form-POST
flow.

Two follow-ups from the Task 11 code review.
Important — without SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE=0, Task 12's Playwright
login would silently fail. app.py:57 sets SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = not
TESTING, so with our TESTING=False conftest the cookie is marked
Secure; the browser drops it over http://127.0.0.1 and the
session never establishes. The env-var override (app.py:53-55) is the
least invasive fix and preserves the SECRET_KEY guard.
Minor — the second init_db() looked redundant but is actually load-
bearing: create_app's init_db runs inside the app context (binds to
the in-app engine), while the seed work uses session_scope() outside
the app context (binds to an env-derived engine). The second
init_db() creates tables on THAT engine. Added a clarifying comment
so a future reader doesn't drop the line and silently break the seed.
Addresses Important #1 + Minor #1 from the Task 11 code review.

Adds playwright + pytest-playwright to workspace dev deps, an e2e
pytest marker, and a live_server fixture that boots the Flask app on
an ephemeral port with a temp SQLite DB. addopts default to -m 'not
e2e' so the regular fast suite excludes them; explicit
`pytest -m e2e` runs them. Smoke test confirms the live server is
reachable.
Workspace root pyproject.toml is the right place for the dev deps and
pytest config — l4d2web/pyproject.toml is minimal and has neither.
