Incorrect partner auth flow from sidebar

[twschiller]

Describe the bug

"Connect" action in sidebar in partner mode sends user to the admin console instead of the extension console partner login page

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Set Extension Console > Advanced Settings > Partner to automation-anywhere (to reproduce, you might also need to set the authentication mode to partner-oauth2)
2. Open the sidebar in a new tab
3. Click "Connect"

Actual behavior

User is taken to the Admin Console

Expected behavior

Open an Extension Console page so the user is shown the partner login screen

Discussion

• Could be pretty straightforward to add a Playwright test for this bug/regression?

I'm unable to replicate. Any tips @twschiller ?

See my PR here for a test that demonstrates the expected behavior: https://github.com/pixiebrix/pixiebrix-extension/pull/8862

I'll send an intro email to our counterpart to so you can coordinate on if the bad behavior is still happening

We can close out this issue once your test PR gets merged

@twschiller FYI I actually suspect it may be an MS Edge/MV3 sidebar thing. I noticed that the e2e test I wrote is failing in edge (which I didn't notice initially due to the way I was running tests locally). Will continue tomorrow

@twschiller I ruled-out the hypothesis that it was an issue with MS Edge. See this comment here about the sidebar behavior in edge: https://github.com/pixiebrix/pixiebrix-extension/pull/8862/files

Still can't replicate this in chrome or edge
