Subject: [PATCH] fix(ui): improve error page copy and add design system tokens

- Tighten error boundary messaging ("issue persists" vs "keeps happening")
- Add error context for debugging (window.__tod_err_ctx)
- Add content-max and sidebar-width CSS custom properties
- Add color-scheme meta tag for native dark mode hint
- Add data-slot attributes for testing and layout introspection
