Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe?

Overview

Add functionality for workspace administrators to set custom alert messages that appear when their assets are scanned by non-authenticated users.

Current Behavior

When a non-authenticated user scans an asset's QR code, they see our default layout with standard messaging:

• "Thank you for scanning"
• "Log in if you own this item. Contact the owner to report if it's lost."

Proposed Behavior

Add a new customizable alert banner above the existing layout that can be configured at the workspace level:

• Workspace admins can set a custom message (e.g. "Property of ResQ, please ring [phone]")
• Message appears prominently at the top of the screen when non-authenticated users scan assets
• Message is consistent across all assets in the workspace
• Message can include basic text formatting and contact information

Technical Requirements

• Add new field in workspace settings for custom message configuration
• Create new UI component for alert banner
• Ensure message renders properly on mobile devices
• Character limit of 150 characters for message
• Basic text sanitization for security

UI/UX Considerations

• Alert banner should be visually distinct but not overwhelming
• Message should be immediately visible without scrolling
• Consider accessibility (contrast, text size)
• Maintain professional appearance of existing layout

Questions to Resolve

• Should we allow HTML/markdown formatting?
• Should we include templating variables (e.g. {workspace_name})?
• Should message be configurable per asset category?
