fix(phase2): resolve code quality issues in ItemPhotoUpload (act warnings, toast cleanup, dual error handling)

Fixed 3 critical code quality issues:

1. Act() warnings in tests (9 tests):
   - Wrapped all async state updates in act() blocks in usePhotoUpload.test.ts
   - Tests using waitFor() now properly await state updates within act()
   - All 21 tests pass with zero act() warnings

2. Missing toast cleanup on unmount:
   - Added toastIdRef to track pending toast IDs
   - Added cleanup useEffect that dismisses toasts on component unmount
   - Prevents memory leaks and orphaned toast notifications

3. Dual error reporting channels (lines 23-28):
   - Removed useEffect that synced hook error to local state AND called onError callback
   - Now syncs hook error to local state only (for display)
   - Parent components rely on hook error state, reducing dual-path confusion
   - Toast error calls are explicit in catch block

Test Results:
- Frontend: 312/312 tests passing (includes 21 photo upload tests)
- Act() warnings: Eliminated
- No regressions introduced
