Function: wantsLoginPage()
wantsLoginPage(
req):boolean
Whether a denied request is a top-level BROWSER NAVIGATION that should be answered with the hosted login page rather than a 401.
An app fronted by the gate (via gatePaths) may serve its own HTML from an
ungated path while its privileged surface (/ws, /api) is gated. A browser
navigating to it would otherwise load the app shell and only see the gated
request fail, with no way to sign in. Serving the login page on the navigation
itself puts sign-in in front of the app. Applies only to GET requests that
accept HTML and are not asking for the login API or an asset.
