dashboard: full-height inbox + drag-to-resize side panel (#450 #451)

two related flyout improvements — both small, single PR.

#450 — full-height inbox

dropped the .inbox max-height: 24em cap. the side-panel-body
already provides overflow: auto, so the cap was just clamping the
inbox list short of the available panel height on tall viewports.
the inbox now fills as much of the panel as it needs and the
panel itself scrolls.

#451 — drag-to-resize side panel

added a 6px hit-strip on the drawer's left edge. mousedown/move/
up handlers track the drag and update --side-panel-w on the
drawer; the CSS variable defaults to min(760px, 94vw) (preserving
pre-#451 behaviour) and is clamped to [320px, 96vw] so a bad
stored value can never wedge the drawer off-screen.

ergonomics

- handle is invisible at rest, mauve glow on hover + during drag
  so the affordance is discoverable but doesn't compete with the
  2px mauve border-left for the visual boundary.
- body.side-panel-resizing class forces ew-resize cursor + kills
  user-select page-wide so the cursor doesn't flip back to
  default the moment it leaves the 6px band during a fast drag.
- final width persists to localStorage (key
  hyperhive:side-panel-width) so it survives reload. window
  resize re-clamps so a stored width that exceeds the new 96vw
  shrinks accordingly.
- handle is a separator role with aria-orientation: vertical +
  aria-label for screen readers.

files

- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/dashboard.css
  - .inbox: dropped max-height (#450).
  - .side-panel-drawer: width = var(--side-panel-w, min(760px,
    94vw)) + min/max clamp (#451).
  - new .side-panel-resize + body.side-panel-resizing rules.
- frontend/packages/dashboard/src/common.js
  - Panel.bind now also calls applyStoredWidth + bindResize.
  - resize handle is prepended to the drawer at bind time so
    every flyout (inbox, file preview, diff, journal) gets it.

validation

- npm run build --workspace=@hive/dashboard clean. CSS 40.9kb →
  41.3kb. app.js + flow.js grew ~0.5kb each (resize handler).
- browser smoke test isn't possible from inside iris's container;
  the resize math is straightforward (width = innerWidth -
  clientX, clamped) and the CSS variable + localStorage
  persistence are standard patterns.
