Subject: [PATCH] [client] Run pnpm install with --ignore-scripts in frontend
 CI (#6859)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Prevent dependency lifecycle scripts (preinstall/postinstall/prepare)
from executing during install in the UI frontend CI job, closing the
most common npm supply-chain vector at build time. The frontend build
does not rely on any dependency install scripts.
