[Bug]: Disconnecting dapp via MetaMask UI does not reject pending transactions

[pnarayanaswamy]

Describe the bug

When a user disconnects a dapp through Settings → Connected Sites, any pending transaction approvals from that dapp remain open instead of being auto-rejected. The user can still approve a transaction for a dapp that is no longer connected. Disconnecting via the RPC method (wallet_revokePermissions) correctly rejects pending approvals only the UI disconnect path leaves the confirmation open.
