* perf: reduce Temporal RPCs with run status cache and lazy frontend loading

Signed-off-by: Aseem Shrey <LuD1161@users.noreply.github.com>

* style(frontend): dark mode color improvements and utility classes

- Adjust dark mode --muted and --accent HSL values for better contrast
- Add scrollbar-hide utility class
- Add highlight-fade animation for new findings in security dashboard

* fix(frontend): fix dead route and scope schedule dedup to current workflow

- navigate('/builder') → navigate('/') on workflow load failure (/builder doesn't exist)
- Scope inflightRef dedup to current workflowId to prevent stale schedule data when switching workflows
