[Frontend] settings-content.tsx does not confirm before discarding unsaved changes on navigation

Why this matters

frontend/src/app/settings/settings-content.tsx lets users edit preferences, but if a user navigates away (via Navbar link or back button) mid-edit with unsaved changes, those edits are silently lost with no warning. This is a common UX gap for settings/preference forms.

Acceptance criteria

• Track dirty state in the settings form
• Show a confirmation prompt (native beforeunload for tab close, and an in-app confirm for internal navigation) when there are unsaved changes
• Add a test covering the dirty-state detection logic

Files to touch

• frontend/src/app/settings/settings-content.tsx

Out of scope

• Auto-saving settings
• Building a generic unsaved-changes framework for all forms
