logan b801fa533a feat(shell): make search a button and a modal where searching applies
The phone's top bar is about to go, and the search box is the one thing
in it that is an action rather than chrome. It becomes a button in the
row that already says which page you are on, opening a wa-dialog with
the real search box in it.

Three decisions worth the words.

**A wa-dialog, and that is a mechanism rather than a taste.** wa-popup
renders `<div popover="manual">` and feature-detects the Popover API,
falling back to `strategy: "fixed"` where there is none -- which is
Chrome 113, the reference device, since `popover` is Chrome 114. And
`position: fixed` escapes ancestor overflow but not `contain: paint`,
which `.main-panel` carries, so a popup-shaped search panel opened from
a view's header is structurally clipped on that device. `<dialog>` /
`showModal()` is Chrome 37 and uses the real top layer. No tier here can
see the difference -- CI's Chromium and WebKit both have the Popover
API -- so the component test asserts the *mechanism*, a native
`<dialog>` in the tree, rather than the symptom.

**An element, not a PageAction.** Two of the seven searchable views are
detail views with no page-header; they filter on the term and say so in
their own headers. Declaring search as an action would mean seven hosts
each writing it out, which is a second list of searchable views, and it
would put a phone mode for actions inside page-header, which that
component documents its refusal to grow. search-store's own map is the
condition, asked by one component placed three times.

**The modal carries the real search-bar**, so there is still one
debounce, one clear button and one view-scoped placeholder. Escape
closes it and *keeps* the term -- the input treats Escape as "clear the
search", which is right in a header where the box stays on screen and
wrong in a surface whose dismissal would then discard the search.

own back gesture, `job-indicator` is `<job-band>`, `search-bar`

window's.
That is also why the volume moved out of `audio-player` and
into the bar (#42): the transport column has to contain the
transport and nothing else, or "centred" means centred with a
slider bolted to one side. It joins the queue button in
`.bar-end`, whose width is what the left column is matched
against. -->
