The web-e2e job has been failing on every run with:
Error: Timed out waiting 120000ms from config.webServer.
Playwright's `webServer` runs `cargo run -p solitaire_server --quiet` and
waits 120s for /health. The workflow cached only npm — no Rust cache — so each
run cold-compiled the entire server graph (axum/sqlx/reqwest/aws-lc-sys) inside
that 120s window and never came up. The browser tests never executed; the
failure was infra, not a web regression.
Fix the harness so the tests actually run:
- add `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2` to warm the cargo cache across runs
- add a `Prebuild server` step (`SQLX_OFFLINE=true cargo build -p
solitaire_server`) before Playwright, so `webServer`'s `cargo run` reuses the
compiled binary and starts in seconds (.sqlx offline cache is committed)
- raise `webServer.timeout` 120s -> 300s as a safety margin for a cold cargo
cache (e.g. first run after a deps bump)
