feat(channels): pager into the chip row, Blocked as its own tab

Address manager UAT:
- The DataTable controls row (status chips + pager) now portals into the
  fixed band via a new controlsInBand prop, so it stays put above the
  sticky header instead of scrolling away — and the pager fills the empty
  space next to the status chips, on one row.
- The tab bar is always fixed chrome now (not just on Subscriptions), so
  it doesn't jump when switching tabs; on Subscriptions the stats/intro/
  tags ride with it.
- Blocked channels moves off the bottom of the Subscriptions list into its
  own 'Blocked' tab (with an empty state), alongside Subscriptions and
  Discover.

Verified with a 90-channel test account: everything above the rows stays
fixed while the rows scroll under the sticky header. Suite 15/15, tsc +
knip clean.
