Owner

A command palette that grows out of today's site search (#339).

What

Opening it: Ctrl K (Cmd K on macOS), / as today, and the rail and phone buttons.
Results: applications, listings, companies, contacts and documents, from the existing search; then pages; then actions.
- Actions are: New application, Capture a posting, New reminder, New appointment, Switch theme (light / dark / system), and Go to settings section.
Behaviour: a modal dialog with a combobox and listbox. Arrow keys move, Enter acts, Esc closes, and focus returns to where it came from. No global key handler swallows typing in fields.
Without scripts: the button is a link to the search page, as today.
Plugins: they may contribute actions through plugins/api.py, behind the published plugin surface check (#229). This is optional and can be a follow-up.

Acceptance

Browser tests for keyboard use, screen-reader names and focus return.
Actions respect permissions.

Depends on #1197.
