feat(player): centre the transport and show the volume inline
Two issues over one bar, because they are one relayout. #42's own findings say so: giving wa-slider a label grows it 6px to 14px and moves the transport, which is #23's subject, so doing them in sequence means measuring the bar twice and throwing the first set away. The bar was `320px 1fr auto`, so the transport sat in the middle of what the metadata and the queue button did not use — its centre was ~140px right of the window's at every width. The outer two tracks are the same expression now, so the middle is centred by construction. The side width is the metadata's, capped at a quarter of the bar, and the cap was measured as a regression before it was a decision: reserving the full `--now-playing-width` on both sides is perfectly centred and takes the seek bar's track from 257px to 61px at 800px, and to 0 at 200% text. The control you drag was paying for the symmetry. With the cap it is 246, which is parity. It is a `min()` rather than a breakpoint because that variable is user state — the metadata has a drag handle — and tying both sides to it is also what keeps dragging meaningful; a plain `1fr … 1fr` centres just as well and silently makes the handle a no-op. The volume moved out of `audio-player` into the bar because the transport column has to hold the transport and nothing else, and it joins the queue button in one cell rather than a second column, since the centring compares columns. It is a slider by default and a popup by setting. The stored flag names the *popup*, which is this config's polarity rule — the zero value has to be the intended answer, so an existing config.toml gets the new default with no migration. Inline, the icon is the mute toggle and is named after that action rather than the state, because with the slider beside it there is nothing to disclose; the component tier now covers both presentations rather than whichever is default. Three nested rules in this block began with a bare element selector, which Chrome 120 relaxed and the phone's Chrome 113 **silently drops** — including the ellipsis on the bar's own title and artist, which has therefore never truncated on the device. They are `&`-prefixed now. Filed as #154 for the class and for a check. `bottom-bar.spec.ts` pins both halves separately on purpose: an uncapped build is perfectly centred and fails only the seek-bar width, so a spec asserting centring alone would have passed the regression above. Both were verified by mutation. Closes #23 Closes #42

whole thing is for — a ResizeObserver on the header alone never fires,

so every element child is observed too.

**The bottom bar is three columns whose outer two are the same width,
|
||||
and that is what "centred" means.** It was `320px 1fr auto`, so the
|

transport sat in the middle of the space the metadata and the queue
|

button did not use — its centre was ~140px right of the window's at
|

every size (#23). The outer tracks are now the same expression, so the
|
||||
middle one is centred by construction rather than by arithmetic that
|
||||
has to be redone whenever a control joins the bar.
|
||||
|
||||
Four things about it are load-bearing.
|
||||
|
||||
**The side width is the metadata's, capped at a quarter of the bar**,
|
||||
and the cap is not tidiness — it was measured as a regression first.
|
||||
Reserving the full `--now-playing-width` on *both* sides costs the
|
||||
transport twice: at 800px the outer pair wanted 640 of 800 and the seek
|
||||
bar's track fell from **257px to 61px**, and to 0 at 200% text. The
|
||||
control you drag was being squeezed to centre the buttons above it.
|
||||
With the cap it is 246px at 800, which is parity with the uncentred
|
||||
layout.
|
||||
|
||||
**The cap is a `min()` rather than a breakpoint** because
|
||||
`--now-playing-width` is *user state* — the metadata panel has a drag
|
||||
handle — and the same reasoning the queue panel's overlay mode uses
|
||||
applies: a rule that assumed the default 320 would be wrong by whatever
|
||||
the user dragged. Tying both sides to that variable is also what keeps
|
||||
the handle meaningful; a plain `1fr … 1fr` would centre the transport
|
||||
just as well and silently make dragging a no-op.
|
||||
|
||||
**The volume moved out of `audio-player` and into the bar** (#42),
|
||||
because the transport column has to hold the transport and nothing
|
||||
else or "centred" means centred with a slider bolted to one side. It
|
||||
lives in `.bar-end` with the queue button — one cell, not two columns,
|
||||
since the centring compares *columns* and a separate volume track would
|
||||
make the outer pair unequal by whatever the slider measures.
|
||||
|
||||
And **the slider is inline by default, with the popup as a setting**
|
||||
whose stored flag names the *popup*: `backend/config`'s polarity rule,
|
||||
where the zero value has to be the intended answer, so an existing
|
||||
`config.toml` with no key gets the new default without a migration.
|
||||
Inline, the icon becomes the mute toggle and is named after that action
|
||||
rather than after the state, because with the slider beside it there is
|
||||
nothing left to disclose. It stands down below 600px whatever the
|
||||
setting says — that is about the platform rather than preference, and
|
||||
is why `mediacontrols`' Android handler implements no volume callback.
|
||||
|
||||
**900 is the worst desktop width, not the 800×600 minimum.** The
|
||||
sidebar collapses to icons *below* 900, so the main panel is 843px at
|
||||
899 and 700px at 900 — the narrowest content area any desktop width
