Feature: Eradicate checkout friction by implementing Google Places Ad…

[pradeep0153]

Closes #382.

Description

This PR executes a foundational upgrade to the checkout funnel, drastically accelerating checkout velocity and mitigating expensive logistics errors by engineering a seamless integration with the Google Places Autocomplete API.

Changes Made

• API Integration: Securely integrated the official Google Maps JavaScript API (specifically the Places library) into the global checkout architecture, strictly scoping the API key to our production and staging domains.
• Component Architecture: Engineered a new, highly interactive <AddressAutocompleteInput /> React component, which entirely replaces the legacy, manual "Street Address 1" input field within the <ShippingAddressForm />.
• Predictive Dropdown: As the user begins typing their street address, the component dynamically fetches and renders a beautifully styled, debounced dropdown of verified, highly accurate address predictions directly from Google's global dataset.
• Algorithmic Auto-fill: When the user taps a prediction, the component executes a robust parsing algorithm against the Google Places payload. It instantly extracts the distinct address components and auto-fills the Street, City, State, and Zip Code fields simultaneously.

Impact

• Conversion Velocity & Logistics Integrity: Typing out a full 6-field shipping address on a mobile device is tedious, highly prone to typos, and is mathematically the number one cause of checkout abandonment. Furthermore, a typo in a Zip Code results in an expensive "Return to Sender" logistical nightmare for heavy furniture. By implementing Google Places Autocomplete, we transform a high-friction data entry chore into a frictionless, single-click action. This drastically accelerates checkout velocity, protects conversion rates, and mathematically guarantees that our logistics team receives pristine, verified shipping addresses 100% of the time.
