feat(player): show progress on the phone's bar border

#59 took the seek bar off the phone's transport, so the one thing a
mini player is expected to say without being opened -- how far through
the song it is -- had nowhere left to be said.

It is the shell's element and its own 2px grid row between `bottom-bar`
and `bottom-nav`, because those two are separate components and either
one drawing the line means reaching into the other's box. The fill is
`scaleX()` off the same `PlaybackPositionChanged` the seek bar renders,
with the same `trackChangeId`/`seq` guards and an interval that only
interpolates *between* reports -- never its own clock, which is the
rule that exists because a local counter drifted 30 s away from the
backend across four keyboard seeks.

It is `aria-hidden` and takes no pointer events at any depth: Now
Playing's seek bar is what announces the position, and a 2px strip on
the top edge of the tab bar is exactly where a thumb aiming at a tab
lands. It renders nothing above 600px, from `matchMedia` rather than a
media query, because a stylesheet cannot stop a 1 Hz interval running
for the life of every desktop session about a line nobody can see.

Its phone rule is at the foot of index.css beside `job-band`'s, not in
the phone block above: a media query adds no specificity, so a
`display: block` written before the `display: none` that takes it out
of the desktop grid loses to it and the line never appears at all.

Closes #58

+## 2026-08-21 — #58, the phone's progress line
+
+Took #58 (Phase 3, item 4 of the roadmap in #73; #56 and #59 landed
+before it and #64 after, so this was the phase's remaining item ahead of
+#51's verification pass). Branch `feat/58-mini-player-progress-line`.
+
+**What.** `<player-progress-line>` in the shell, with its own `auto`
+grid row between `bottom-bar` and `bottom-nav` below 600px. 2px, the
+fill is `scaleX()` off `PlaybackPositionChanged` with the seek bar's
+`trackChangeId`/`seq` guards and an interval that only interpolates
+between reports. `aria-hidden`, `pointer-events: none`, and it renders
+nothing above 600px or with no track.
+
+**Verified.**
+
+- `make ui-test` — 992 passed, including 8 new in
+  `frontend/test/components/progress-line.test.ts` (the matchMedia
+  branch, the report/interpolation rules, paused, a stale report, and
+  that it is neither announced nor touchable).
+- `make e2e --project=chromium` — 223 passed, including 3 new in
+  `e2e/specs/phone-progress-line.spec.ts` (the two adjacencies, that it
+  takes no taps, that it is absent on a desktop). WebKit is CI's half;
+  Arch cannot run Playwright's Linux WebKit.
+- Read a screenshot at the reference device's 424x439 with a real track
+  playing, and watched the real transform advance 0.288889 -> 0.377778
+  over 8 s of a 90 s track. Also checked the line goes with the bar on
+  `now-playing`.
+- No Go changed, so `make lint`/`make test` were not run.
+
+**Left open.** No device tier: this is a browser at 424x439, which
+`CLAUDE.md` is explicit is not a phone. The line's *appearance* on
+Chrome 113 is unverified; the CSS it uses (a transform and a flat
+background) is nowhere near that engine's gaps.
