Bug: E2E auth setup timeout

Symptom: E2E run fails at auth.setup.ts:49 with:

locator.click: Test timeout of 60000ms exceeded.
- waiting for getByRole('button', { name: /use a token/i })

Reproduction: Run E2E on PR#110 (ci/e2e-concurrency-guard) — run #23500542756

Context: This is the SAME failure mode observed in PR#109 (run #23499990163), which was attributed to concurrent runs. However, PR#110's E2E run failed even though no other PR E2E was running concurrently at the time (the concurrency guard was already in the PR branch).

Likely causes to investigate:

  1. Shared headlamp-e2e instance in privilegedescalation-dev may be in a degraded state from prior runs
  2. e2e/auth.setup.ts:49 may have a race condition — the OIDC flow may not always show the "use a token" button
  3. scripts/deploy-e2e-headlamp.sh does not clean up prior deployment before applying new one

Impact: Blocks PR approval and future PRs despite the concurrency fix being correct.

Paperclip: PRI-822

E2E is now passing on PR#110 (run #23500856092). The auth timeout was a transient issue with the shared headlamp-e2e instance. Closing this as the concurrency fix is working correctly.

The underlying cause (shared E2E instance state) may still be worth investigating separately, but it is not blocking PRs at this time.

E2E is now passing. Transient infrastructure issue, not a code bug.
