Report #56305

[bug\_fix] Prop className did not match \(Styled Components/Emotion hydration mismatch\)

Create a \`registry.tsx\` \(or \`lib/registry.tsx\`\) that uses \`styled-components\` \`ServerStyleSheet\` to collect styles during SSR and injects them into the head via \`useServerInsertedHTML\`. Wrap the root layout with this registry. The registry component itself must be marked with \`"use client"\`.

Journey Context:
You migrate from Pages Router to App Router and bring your existing styled-components setup. Styles work when navigating client-side, but on a hard refresh, the page renders completely unstyled for a split second \(FOUC - Flash of Unstyled Content\), then the console shows hydration errors about \`className\` not matching between server and client. You investigate and learn that styled-components generates unique class hashes \(e.g., \`sc-abc123\`\); during SSR it generates one set of hashes and CSS, but the client-side hydration generates a different set because the StyleSheet singleton context isn't shared between the server and client streams in the App Router architecture like it was in Pages Router with \`\_document.tsx\`. You find the Next.js documentation for styled-components in App Router. It instructs you to create a \`registry.tsx\` file that creates a \`ServerStyleSheet\`, uses the \`useServerInsertedHTML\` hook to extract the styles during rendering, and injects them into the \`\`. You implement this registry, wrap your root layout's children with it, and the hydration errors disappear because the server now sends the correct CSS in the HTML head, allowing the client to hydrate with matching classNames.
