Charles Bochet 9ac503e3af fix(front): defer default home redirect when object metadata is not loaded (#20330)
## Summary

Fixes the merge-queue E2E failures introduced after #20308. After login,
users were being silently redirected to `/settings/profile` instead of
their workspace home, which broke every dependent E2E test that re-uses
the post-login URL (`workflow-creation.spec.ts`,
`authentication/signup_invite_email.spec.ts`, etc.).

## Root cause

`useDefaultHomePagePath` falls back to `/settings/profile` when
`readableNonSystemObjectMetadataItems` is empty. That list is empty in
two cases:

1. The user genuinely has no readable objects → `/settings/profile` is
the intended fallback.
2. Object metadata simply hasn't been loaded yet (transient post-login
window).

Before #20308 the frontend always loaded mocked metadata for
authenticated users, so case (2) never happened. After #20308 mocked
metadata is gone, and during the post-verify window
(`handleLoadWorkspaceAfterAuthentication` finishes,
`setIsAppEffectRedirectEnabled(true)` re-enables redirects,
`PageChangeEffect` fires) the metadata store is still empty. The hook
then returns `/settings/profile`. Because that path is not in
`ONBOARDING_PATHS` / `ONGOING_USER_CREATION_PATHS`,
`usePageChangeEffectNavigateLocation` doesn't fire a corrective redirect
once metadata finally loads — the user is stranded.

`login.setup.ts` captures `process.env.LINK = page.url()` after verify,
so subsequent tests `goto(LINK)` end up in Settings looking for app
navigation that isn't there → click timeouts.

## Fix

Distinguish the two empty cases by reading
`metadataStoreState('objectMetadataItems').status`. If it isn't
`'up-to-date'` we defer to `AppPath.Index` instead of
`/settings/profile`. The memo recomputes when the status flips, and the
user is then routed to their actual home page.

A regression test is added in `useDefaultHomePagePath.test.ts` for the
not-loaded-yet case.

## Test plan

- [x] Unit: `npx jest
src/modules/navigation/hooks/__tests__/useDefaultHomePagePath.test.ts`
(5/5 pass, including new regression case)
- [ ] CI: Playwright E2E (`workflow-creation.spec.ts`,
`authentication/signup_invite_email.spec.ts`) pass on this branch
- [ ] Manual: log in to a fresh local instance and confirm landing page
is the workspace home, not `/settings/profile`

  labelPlural: 'Deals',
  fields: [
    { name: 'name', label: 'Name', type: FieldType.TEXT },
    { name: 'amount', label: 'Amount', type: FieldType.CURRENCY },
    { name: 'closeDate', label: 'Close Date', type: FieldType.DATE_TIME },
  ],
});

Then ship it to your workspace:

npx twenty deploy
