docs: redesign v0.1 screen as side panel + writing column

Browse Source 
Replace the header/status-bar layout with a full-height writing column
plus an always-visible side panel holding all metadata. Canonicalize the
new region vocabulary in CONTEXT.md (Writing column, Side panel) and retire
header / status line / edit area as terms-to-avoid.

Consequent sweeps: rewrite the Error UX section in side-panel terms and
give keyboard-disconnect a home (⌨ ✗, disconnect-only); drop the "line N"
readout; reconcile the render module ops and region shadow; sweep the
status-line/edit-area wording across the technical, roadmap, qfd, notes,
README, and ADR-003 docs (incl. the ~11→~13 line-count figure).

For `Ctrl-G`, the equivalent moment isn't "push complete." It's "commit landed locally" — which happens at ~0.2 seconds, well before the push even starts. From that moment on, your work is preserved across power loss, SD removal, the apocalypse — everything except remote delivery. The remaining 5–10 seconds is _transport of an already-safe thing_.
Surface that moment in the status line at ~0.2 seconds (`✓ committed abc1234 · pushing…`) and the perceived latency of `Ctrl-G` collapses from 10 seconds to roughly 200 milliseconds. The gap with `Ctrl-S` disappears.

**Durability before delivery.** The moment that matters to the user is the moment durability is achieved, not the moment delivery completes. Once you see that, the slow operations stop feeling slow.
