New markup over an old stylesheet

Reported from a desktop browser: a stray close button beside the logo, badly
drawn, and a page that would not scroll. None of it was in the code that was
running -- it was the code the browser had not fetched.

The worker caches /static/ under a cache named for the release while the files
in it carried no version, and a page is fetched network-first. That only ever
worked because the worker used to seize every open tab the instant it installed
and wipe the old cache. 1.1.0 stopped it doing that, rightly -- it was swapping
stylesheets out from under a streaming reply -- and a momentary mismatch became
a permanent one: new markup over the previous release's CSS for as long as the
old worker lived. `.sidebar__close` had no rule there, so `.btn--icon` made it
inline-flex: visible everywhere, placed by nothing.

Every /static/ URL carries the release now, written by `templating.asset` and
precached by `sw.js:versioned` -- both halves, because caches.match compares the
query too and precaching the bare path would cache entries nothing requests.
Self-correcting: updating is enough.

The header was also a brand with a button appended and margin-left:auto doing
the placing, which holds exactly while that button is last. Two slots now: a
brand that shrinks and truncates, and a rail on the trailing edge.

Verified before changing anything: with the current stylesheet the button is
display:none at 1280 and, with thirty chats and forty messages, both scrollers
scroll. The first measurement said the thread did not -- that was
scroll-behavior: smooth reporting where it started.
