Subject: [PATCH] test: remove flaky slow-save navigation e2e test

The "stops waiting for a slow save while preserving late acknowledgements
and queued edits" test races Playwright's fake clock against real debounce
and network timing, and has failed intermittently on main and in PRs since
it landed. Six prior stabilization attempts, including bumping its timeout
to 60s, did not hold; the latest run on main still exceeded that budget.

The same behavior is covered deterministically with fake timers in
apps/web/src/features/resume/builder/draft.test.ts ("ends a stalled
navigation wait without aborting or discarding the pending save", plus
the queued-edit and pending-snapshot cases), so removing the e2e test
loses no coverage.
