Allow Pinch-to-Zoom on Mobile
Removes maximum-scale and user-scalable=no from the page's viewport tag when a theme or plugin adds them, so visitors can zoom in on phones as WCAG requires.

document.querySelectorAll('meta[name="viewport"]').forEach(function (meta) {
var content = meta.getAttribute('content') || '';
var cleaned = content.split(',').map(function (part) { return part.trim(); }).filter(function (part) {
return part && !/^(maximum-scale|user-scalable)\s*=/i.test(part);
}).join(', ');
if (cleaned !== content) { meta.setAttribute('content', cleaned); }
