[fix] Disconnect websocket on page reload to prevent missed notifications #264

When users click "Save" or "Save and Continue", the page reloads and
closes the websocket connection. If a background task completes during
this reload, the notification is lost because there's no active
websocket connection to receive it.

This change explicitly disconnects the websocket on beforeunload,
ensuring the server knows the client is unavailable. When the page
reloads and the websocket reconnects, any queued notifications will
be delivered properly.

Fixes #264
