…in-unused-imports Add `eslint-plugin-unused-imports` to dependencies and ESLint configuration to automatically detect and remove unused imports via `eslint --fix`. Updated config to import the plugin and set `'unused-imports/no-unused-imports'` and `'unused-imports/no-unused-vars'` as new rules, superseding the default `no-unused-vars`. This improves code cleanliness and reduces manual effort in managing imports. Existing `no-unused-vars` remains off to avoid conflicts.
