peter 36653886d5 build(frontend)!: knip drops --production; plain knip stays
The production pass (7ed2ac4e, E32) asked "is this export used by what
ships?". No real hit: its only findings were 37 exports a test imports,
answered with 36 `@internal` JSDoc tags (E34 S2) — test-only exports, not
defects. Since then it has only ever asked for another tag. The tags go
with it (36, no longer read by anything), and so do the production-only
`!…!` exclusions in knip.jsonc and their register rows. Plain knip (unused
files, exports and dependencies) keeps running in the gate.

// Infinite-scroll read-ahead policy for VirtualGrid, extracted as a pure function so the decision is
// unit-testable without a layout engine.
//
// The next page is pulled once the last rendered row comes within `lookahead` rows of the loaded end,
// where lookahead scales with the number of rows the viewport currently renders (so it adapts to
// window height / column count / row height) but is clamped to a floor and a ceiling:
// - floor PREFETCH_ROWS: the finite-list / first-paint case where nothing is rendered yet.
// - ceiling MAX_LOOKAHEAD_ROWS: a tall window renders many rows, and an uncapped lookahead would
// eagerly prefetch several pages on every mount / filter change — wasted work on the app's
// heaviest query (the feed). The cap bounds that while still buffering a couple of screens ahead.
