tabs-url-routing
MUI Tabs should use URL routing via useSearchParams for bookmarkable/shareable tabs.
Applies to: TypeScript
Why this matters
When tabs use local useState instead of URL routing, users can't bookmark specific tabs, share links to specific tabs, or use browser back/forward navigation. This hurts UX especially for admin dashboards and multi-section pages. Use useSearchParams to sync tab state with the URL.
