Subject: [PATCH] feat(a11y): add accessible Skip to Content link

- Added `SkipLink` component that is visible on focus.
- Updated `App.tsx` to include `SkipLink` and wrap content in `<main id="main-content">`.
- Added translation keys for skip link in English and German.
- Added unit tests for `SkipLink`.

This improves accessibility for keyboard and screen reader users by allowing them to bypass the navigation menu.
