peter 4ee452b854 fix(a11y,layout): deep-review fixes — menu roles, sort aria-pressed, rem rail threshold
Epic-end deep-review of the branch surfaced six verified findings; fix them.

a11y (medium): FilterSelect and SortControl opened their AnchoredPopover in
mode:"listbox" but never passed a role, so the surface fell through to
role="menu" while the rows rendered role="option"+aria-selected — options
orphaned outside a listbox, so AT could not announce the selected value.
Switch both to the house menu pattern (as ViewSwitcher already uses): a menu
surface with menuitemradio (single) / menuitemcheckbox (multi) rows carrying
aria-checked, scoped by a role=group. Trigger stays a button+haspopup=menu.

a11y (low): the SortControl asc/desc direction segment signalled the active
direction by colour alone. Add aria-pressed so the current direction is
programmatically exposed, matching SegmentedToggle.

correctness (low): PageShell converted a rem maxWidth to px with a hardcoded
16 to decide the pinned-rail overlay threshold, but index.css scales the root
font by --font-scale (default 1.06 ~ 17px, slider 0.9-1.3), so the threshold
was wrong at every text size on the rem pages (playlists is the only one with
a pinned rail). Use the live root font-size, scale the 36rem slack the same
way, and recompute when --font-scale changes (a guarded MutationObserver — the
slider fires no resize).

tests: cover the two gaps the review flagged — ItemCount (plural, 1M+ overflow,
undefined icon-only, tooltip) and the PageShell rail-pinned-w/content-mw
threshold math incl. the font-scale scaling. Updated the FilterSelect/
SortControl role queries to the new menuitemradio/checkbox roles.

Verified in the running app: menu surfaces carry role=group + menuitemradio/
checkbox with 0 orphaned options, and the sort direction segment exposes
aria-pressed. Dropped two review findings (max-width duplication, pill-class
reuse) as refuted on adversarial verification. Gate green: tsc, 372 vitest,
prettier, eslint (0 err).
