Steppers and file uploads

Stepper shows progress through multistep flows, FileUpload accepts picked or dropped files, and components move to the unified size tokens.

New features

Added Stepper with horizontal, stacked and vertical layouts, controlled and uncontrolled active steps, error steps, and clickable steps for moving back.
Added FileUpload with a dropzone and file picker, plus FileUpload.Item for upload progress, errors, and cancel, remove and retry actions.

Improved Select with animated field expansion and popup motion that respects reduced motion.
Improved PinField with animated character entry.

Fixed reflow gaps and overlapping targets in Select.Combobox, gave multi-select badge-removal and clear-all controls separate 24 × 24 px targets, and aligned custom badges beside names.
Fixed multi-select Select menus jumping, clipping or overlapping as badges wrap and unwrap; menus now stay on their current side while they still fit.
Fixed the Badge close button touch target being smaller than 24 × 24 px, and kept touch targets centered in right-to-left layouts.
Fixed floating content ignoring rapid close and reopen, staying in the page when no hide transition runs, and closing straight away when opened by a click outside it.
Fixed nested floating content appearing below its owning overlay.
Fixed overlay stacking: floating content uses --vortex-z-index-5555; CommandMenu, Drawer, ZoomImage and Backdrop use --vortex-z-index-7777; Toast uses --vortex-z-index-8888; and the default BreakpointsIndicator zIndex is now 10000.
Fixed keyboard focus rings not appearing, and hover-triggered floating content not opening on focus, after macOS Option+Tab navigation.

Required @vortexlabs/vortex-themes@^0.3.0. Components use --vortex-size-* tokens instead of --vortex-height-* and --vortex-width-*.
