Sidebar becomes a mobile drawer below 768px

The sidebar was flex:0 0 15rem inside .app__body unconditionally, so
on a narrow viewport it and the main content just fought over space.
Below 768px it now leaves the flex flow entirely (position: fixed,
translated off-canvas by default) and slides in as a drawer instead,
leaving .app__main the full width.

- App.vue: a ☰ button in the header (hidden above the breakpoint)
  opens it; a backdrop tap, the drawer's own close button, or any
  navigation (route.fullPath watcher) closes it. State lives in
  App.vue since the toggle button is in the header, not the sidebar.
- AppSidebar.vue: a close button (✕), only visible in the drawer,
  emitting 'close'.
- Desktop (>=768px) layout and behaviour is untouched -- the drawer
  CSS and the toggle button both live behind the same media query.

Drag-and-drop is untouched, as asked -- this only affects layout, and
the sidebar's inbox draggable works the same as before either way.

+Below `768px` (`style.css`'s one layout breakpoint) the sidebar becomes an
+off-canvas drawer instead of sitting beside the page: `position: fixed`,
+translated out of view by default, slid in via a `.sidebar--open` class.
+`App.vue` owns the `drawerOpen` state -- a `☰` button in the header (hidden
+above the breakpoint) opens it; a backdrop tap, the drawer's own `✕` (which
+`AppSidebar` emits `close` for), or any navigation (a `route.fullPath`
+watcher) closes it. Above the breakpoint `drawerOpen` just goes unused, since
+nothing renders the button that would set it.

 `/` redirects to `/dashboard` (`DashboardView.vue`): a full-width grid linking
 to each project (title + card count), with a **"Create a project" tile**
