Media modal revamp introduces persistent ObservationRail with inline editing and new monochrome UI components.

Full changelog

See the full changelog: CHANGELOG.md

Media Modal Revamp - Persistent right-side ObservationRail replaces the bbox popover, with collapsed/expanded ObservationRow inline editor, AddObservationMenu (Draw / Whole-image), and BboxLabelMinimal species-only label; black image-viewer background and aligned detection chrome across modal and gallery thumbnails
Reusable Monochrome UI Components - SpeciesPicker, BehaviorSelector, LifeStageSelector, and SexSelector extracted from the editor for reuse across the app
Keyboard Shortcuts - ? toggles the shortcuts panel, Ctrl+arrow navigates sequences, Tab/Shift+Tab cycle observations even when the species picker is focused; panel pinned in the rail with portable text-word arrow labels
Best-Captures Modal - Aligned with the media-modal chrome for a consistent viewing experience
Media Grid Cell Redesign - Timestamp overlay and slim footer for ThumbnailCard and SequenceCard, with new formatGridTimestamp and getSpeciesCountsFromSequence helpers (×N counts)
Accurate Sequence Counts - Per-species sequence counts now use max-per-frame instead of summing across frames, so bursts no longer inflate counts
UX Polish - Files truncates long import paths from the start, Study bar hides tab labels below lg (compact while importing), and the Deployments timeline adapts to screen width
