Pull Request for Issue #32816 .

Summary of Changes

The language filter is configured for automatic language change and SEF is enabled.

When a logged-out user attempts to access a menu item that requires specific access permissions (e.g., https://test.com/en/somepagewithaccess), they are correctly redirected to the login page. The return URL is set to the intended destination, so the user should be redirected there after a successful login.

However, after signing in, the user is taken back to the login page instead of the originally requested page.

The PR checks if mode_sef is enabled and does the correct redirect.

Testing Instructions

1. Create a site with 2 languages and SEF enabled.
2. Create a menu item with access registered.
3. Enabled automatic language change in Language Filter plugin.
4. Try to access the restricted menu URL.
5. Login to the site.

Check the screen capture in the original issue for more info.
