Keep MFA backup codes visible after enabling MFA by avoiding protected-route unmount during user reload (`loadUser({ silent: true })`) and restoring pending backup codes from sessionStorage until the user explicitly dismisses them.
Audit logging for admin actions, backups, auth events.
New AuditLogPanel in Admin tab with pagination.
Dockerfile security: run as non-root user.
i18n keys for all 9 languages.
