Subject: [PATCH] fix(lighthouse): set LHCI_CHROME_PATH and lower thresholds
 per CTO feedback

- Set LHCI_CHROME_PATH to Playwright chromium binary path so LHCI
  healthcheck can find Chrome
- Lower thresholds: performance=0.5, accessibility=0.7 (error), seo=0.7
- SEO threshold was missing, now added
