Add pageTitleOverride prop to all Header components in the Extensions plugin to fix the WCAG document-title accessibility violation. The Backstage Header component uses react-helmet to set the browser document title via pageTitleOverride, and without it the HTML title element remains empty, triggering an axe-core violation. Remove the skipFailures flag from the e2e accessibility test utility so violations are always enforced. The flag was a temporary measure that suppressed real WCAG violations. Now that the document-title issue is fixed, the e2e suite enforces full accessibility checks with wcag2a, wcag2aa, wcag21a, and wcag21aa tags. Closes #3838
