[Backend] frontend/src/context/wallet-context.tsx reducer has no error boundary for malformed persisted session JSON

Why this matters

frontend/src/context/wallet-context.tsx reads a persisted wallet session from storage on hydrate. If that stored value is corrupted or from an older, incompatible schema (e.g. after a shape change), JSON.parse or the reducer's assumptions about field presence can throw during initial render, crashing the whole app shell before any wallet UI mounts.

Acceptance criteria

• Wrap the hydrate/parse step in a try/catch that falls back to a clean disconnected state
• Clear the invalid stored value so the app doesn't loop on the same bad data
• Add a regression test with a deliberately malformed stored session

Files to touch

• frontend/src/context/wallet-context.tsx
• frontend/src/context/wallet-context.test.tsx

Out of scope

• Changing the wallet connection flow itself
• Migrating storage format
