Connor Yoh 2fe4b2ba2a feat(desktop): integrate window controls instead of a title-bar strip
Rework the custom Windows chrome from a dedicated full-width title bar
(which wasted the top row and stopped the rail/panels reaching the window
edge) into an overlay: minimize/maximize/close pinned to the top-right
corner, with the app's own chrome reserving that corner.

- WindowTitleBar is a fixed top-right overlay; it publishes --wincontrols-w
  and --wincontrols-h for the app to reserve against.
- AppFrame/AppLayout revert to full height, so the rail, sidebars, workbench
  and search run all the way to the top again.
- Reserve the controls' corner wherever app chrome reaches the window's right
  edge: the tool-panel header (PDF Tools + active tools like Automate), the
  collapsed panel's expand toggle, and the files-page header.
- Drag the window (and double-click-maximize) from any non-interactive spot
  in the top strip via a document-level hit test, since data-tauri-drag-region
  only fires on bare container backgrounds.

All reservations key off --wincontrols-w (0 unless the Windows custom chrome
is active), so macOS/Linux/web are unaffected.
