perf(14-03): eliminate per-item closure allocation in scroll render paths

- Replace inline arrow closures in renderTrackRow with event delegation via data-index
- Replace inline arrow closures in renderTrackItem with event delegation via data-index
- Add delegated click/dblclick/contextmenu/dragstart handlers on virtualizer elements
- Remove button click in queue panel also delegated via closest('.remove-button')
- Zero new function objects created per renderItem call during scroll
