feat: Streamline UI E2E tests and add MaaS integration tests

- Remove 16 skipped tests that weren't providing value
- Fix test failures by replacing body visibility checks with more reliable assertions
- Fix strict mode violations by using more specific selectors (role-based, filters)
- Add TestMaaSIntegration class with end-to-end MaaS tests through UI:
  - test_maas_chat_completion_direct_mode: Verifies MaaS responds to chat messages
  - test_maas_model_selection: Verifies MaaS model is available
- Update workflow to pass MaaS env vars to UI tests and enable inference tests
- Reduce test count from 44 to ~24 essential tests focusing on core functionality

This ensures complete workflow CI coverage with MaaS testing at both:
- Backend API level (llamastack-integration-tests)
- Frontend UI level (ui-e2e-tests)
