Changelog Entry
Description
Disclaimer: I don't really know stuff about Svelte at all, just did some research and followed their documentation.
The present PR implements the suggestions from there, using a polling interval of 60s (just a tiny request). The "version" of the app is the commit hash it was built from.
In testing, I have verified the polling and updated the container to a new revision with a tab open, which led to a full page reload at least when "clicking" something, e.g. opening workspaces.
Added
Svelte kit config, small block in +layout.svelte
Screenshot
Additional Information
Note: I still think the modifications for index.html caching should be done additionally.

### Description
Disclaimer: I don't really know stuff about Svelte at all, just did some research and followed their documentation.
Discussions like https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/discussions/13586 or the comment https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/pull/13364#issuecomment-2871939637 have led me to research what could be improved in terms of handling frontend code updates. I ended up with this section in the Svelte docs: https://svelte.dev/docs/kit/configuration#version
