Thanks for contributing to Hacktoberfest 2025!

Description

This PR implements automatic scroll-to-top behavior when navigating between routes in the SPA. Previously, when users scrolled down on one page and navigated to another, they would remain at the same scroll position, causing confusion. This fix ensures every route transition starts from the top of the page.

Changes made:

• Created ScrollToTop component that uses useLocation hook to detect route changes
• Integrated ScrollToTop into RootLayout to apply globally across all routes
• Scroll position now resets to top (0, 0) on every navigation

Issue: Fixes scroll position persistence bug during SPA navigation
Closes #113
