feat(dev): --theme-watch flag for live theme authoring (#1019)

Debug builds only: `--theme-watch <theme.css>` polls a local theme file
and pushes it into the running app on save (a lightweight Rust watcher
thread emits a Tauri event). The frontend installs the CSS under its
[data-theme='<id>'] selector and applies it, so the existing
syncInjectedThemes effect re-injects live — no zip re-import, no reload.
Double-gated (debug_assertions + import.meta.env.DEV); never wired in
production.
