🎯 What: The PAGE_CONTENT mutex was being cloned unnecessarily, and worse, it was being locked before blocking on a network recv() call.
💡 Why: By locking the mutex after unblocking from the recv() call, this improvement fixes a major concurrency bug that caused lock starvation and stale content serving, while also improving memory efficiency by removing the extra allocation.
✅ Verification: Re-ran cargo test --workspace to ensure all tests passed successfully, and reviewed the change via code review which confirmed the patch correctness.
✨ Result: Improved maintainability, safer concurrent code execution, and reduced memory footprint.

This commit refactors the `web.rs` server implementations (lines 401 and 469) to acquire the `PAGE_CONTENT` mutex lock *after* waiting for an incoming request instead of holding it beforehand. This resolves an underlying bug where the server would serve stale content and block other threads while waiting for network I/O, while simultaneously avoiding an unnecessary string clone by dereferencing the mutex guard instead.
