fix(e2e): use client-side routing for settings navigation

The PluginSettings component reads the plugin registry once on mount
and never re-renders when new plugins register. Using page.goto() for
the settings URL re-initializes the SPA, causing PluginSettings to
mount before async plugin scripts finish calling registerPluginSettings().

Replace page.goto() with pushState + popstate to do client-side routing.
This preserves the already-loaded plugin registrations from the main
page, so PluginSettings sees the plugin immediately on mount.
