Benjamin Taylor 5c0150392f ci: stop Playwright browser installs shelling out to apt ...

Every Playwright install in CI passed `--with-deps`, which runs `apt-get
update` before downloading the browser. apt on the runners cannot always
reach azure.archive.ubuntu.com; when it can't it retries for many minutes,
which is long enough to burn a job's whole `timeout-minutes` budget before
a single test runs. GitHub renders that kill as "The operation was
canceled", so it reads as a test failure rather than an infrastructure hang.

Chromium's system libraries are already present on the Ubuntu runner
images, and every one of these steps installs chromium only, so the browser
download is all they need. Six jobs lose their apt dependency:
test_unit, test_e2e-legacy-v1, test_e2e-showcase-on-demand,
test_showcase-frontend-matrix, showcase_eval and showcase_capture-previews.

Ports CopilotKit/website#529 to this repo.
