Three issues addressed:
1. IconGridSelect popup was clipped/mispositioned because the .panel
ancestor has backdrop-filter, which makes it the containing block
for position:fixed descendants (CSS spec gotcha). Added a tiny
portal action ($lib/portal) that re-parents the popup + backdrop
to document.body, and refreshed the popup styling to be Aurora-
native (solid surface, gradient active state, glass-strong search).
2. Always-visible top search bar: a sticky glass strip at the top of
every page with the search trigger (⌘K), theme cycler, locale
toggle, and a primary 'New tracker' gradient CTA — moved out of
the sidebar to free up rail space and make search reachable from
anywhere. The sidebar's inline search button is gone.
3. Navbar snapped to the mockup:
- Sidebar footer redone as a glass user-card (avatar gradient +
username + role + mint live chip + change-password / docs / logout
row beneath a hairline).
- Section labels above each nav group (Overview / Routing /
Operators / System) with a hairline rule that extends to the
edge — same rhythm as the dashboard mockup.
- Active nav link keeps the gradient bar + glass-elev background
+ inset highlight + soft outer glow.
i18n: nav.section* keys (en + ru), dashboard.newTracker reused for
the topbar CTA. Build clean.
