The e2e tests (accessibility + mobile) are failing because the test infrastructure hasn't been updated since the boss feature, journal, and admin pages were added.

## Problems

### 1. Missing pages in test coverage
Both `accessibility.spec.ts` and `mobile.spec.ts` share a hardcoded page list that is missing several routes added since the tests were written:

**Missing from page list:**
- `runs/:runId/journal/:entryId` — Journal entry page (requires journal fixture)
- `admin/games/:gameId` — Admin game detail page (requires game fixture ID)
- `admin/games/:gameId/routes/:routeId` — Admin route detail page (requires route fixture ID)
- `admin/runs` — Admin runs page
- `admin/genlockes` — Admin genlockes page
- `admin/genlockes/:genlockeId` — Admin genlocke detail page (requires genlocke fixture ID)

### 2. Missing test fixtures/seeding
The global-setup seeds runs, encounters, and genlockes but does **not** seed:
- Boss battles (via `/games/{game_id}/bosses`)
- Boss results (via `/runs/{run_id}/boss-results`)
- Journal entries (via journal API)
- Version groups (required for boss battles to work)

The RunEncounters page now renders a boss battle section, which likely makes API calls that fail or produce unexpected DOM, causing accessibility or layout violations.

### 3. Shared page list duplication
Both spec files duplicate the same page list — should be extracted to a shared constant in `fixtures.ts`.

## Checklist

- [ ] Update `fixtures.ts` to export a shared page list with all current routes
- [ ] Add boss battle seeding to `global-setup.ts` (create boss via API after game seed)
- [ ] Add boss result seeding to `global-setup.ts` (create result for the test run)
- [ ] Add journal entry seeding to `global-setup.ts` (create entry for the test run)
- [ ] Add new fixture IDs to `Fixtures` interface (journalEntryId, routeId, bossId, etc.)
- [ ] Update `accessibility.spec.ts` to use shared page list
- [ ] Update `mobile.spec.ts` to use shared page list
- [ ] Run e2e tests locally and verify they pass
- [ ] Fix any new accessibility or layout violations on boss/journal pages

## Files to modify
- `frontend/e2e/fixtures.ts`
- `frontend/e2e/global-setup.ts`
- `frontend/e2e/accessibility.spec.ts`
- `frontend/e2e/mobile.spec.ts`

## Notes
- The boss feature is still in progress (epic `nuzlocke-tracker-neqv`). This bean should be worked on after the boss feature is finalized to avoid churn.
- Version groups must exist for boss battle API calls to work — check if `app.seeds` already seeds them.
