Feature: Added a study stopwatch to the navbar so students can track their study duration while practicing DSA problems.
The stopwatch supports Start / Pause / Reset, automatically persists time using localStorage, and seamlessly adapts to the existing navbar theme and dark mode.

Hi @MrunaliniPachpute 👋

@dhrumiltechwork-lab Great job — it works perfectly!

However, as I’ve mentioned before, please make sure to follow the proper procedure: create an issue first, get assigned, and only then start working on a PR.

Also, note that the stopwatch has been added only to the homepage, not across all pages. Considering the Hacktoberfest deadline, I’m accepting this PR for now — but please remember to follow the contribution guidelines for future open-source work :)
