[for discussion] Adding Auth functional tests to Playwright Smoke-test

[thedavidprice]

For discussion re: #4486

@dac09 I started playing around with how to use Playwright + Test-project with dbAuth to do some basic Auth functional testing.

This is for discussion only. Let's close once path is determined.

Playwright looks like it will make this super simple:

• should it be a separate test or add-on tests to either or both rw dev and rw serve; long-term I prefer standalone but game to do what needs to be done right now
• I think this will better serve us as a stand-alone GH workflow; if easy, let's do that now. But I want something up asap so if using Smoke-test workflow for now, I'm all for it
• I suggest we use the Test-project until proven otherwise. I can see why, in the future, we'll want a separate fixture. But for the tests we need now this feels like the foundation we need

Reactions and suggestions?

It makes sense to use the smoke-test since you added the dbauth stuff in already!

I do want to expand on this a bit more though, because the issues we see are often more nuanced e.g. refresh the page, private routes, etc.

@dac09 please do! And feel free to close this PR if/as needed. I want to hand this over as I can't dedicate the time even though it's priority.

Closing this as its rolled into auth checks in #4673
