feat: add ErrorBoundary for graceful crash recovery

- Catches render errors and shows a styled recovery UI instead of blank white screen
- Try Again button re-renders, Reload button refreshes the page
- Error details shown in a collapsible pre block
- Full i18n support (EN/FR)
- Wraps the entire app in main.tsx
