Conversation
Adds capture_pageview and capture_pageleave to the PostHog init config so we can measure total site traffic and time-on-page alongside existing event tracking. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Code Review
This pull request enables automatic pageview and pageleave tracking in the PostHog configuration within the default layout. The review feedback suggests moving the PostHog script block from the bottom of the body to the head section to ensure more reliable event capture for users who navigate away quickly, noting that the asynchronous nature of the script will prevent it from blocking page rendering.

The PostHog initialization and snippet are currently located at the bottom of the <body>. For more accurate tracking of 'total site traffic' and to ensure that $pageview and $pageleave events (as well as existing custom events like docs_download_click) are captured for users who interact with the page or navigate away before the script is reached, it is recommended to move the PostHog <script> block into the <head> section. Since the library is loaded asynchronously (p.async=!0), moving it to the head will not block page rendering but will significantly improve the reliability of your analytics data.
