preview: full-screen modal replaces inline split + tags route reorg

The old SplitGrid + InlinePreview pane is replaced by a full-screen PreviewModal mounted once at the layout root. Open via Space on the focused tile or double-click; close on Esc (or X / Space again). Inside, PreviewPane renders the focused photo, RightSidebar carries the metadata, BulkActionBar reuses the existing per-photo actions, and PreviewCarousel windows ±50 thumbs around the focused index. Selection contract matches the grid: plain click reduces, shift extends the range, ⌘/Ctrl toggles, plain arrow drops the multi- selection, shift-arrow extends. New clearBulkToFirst() helper makes Esc / Clear collapse a bulk back to single-focus on its first member before the next press fully dismisses (modal closes, grid clears focus). Tags route reorganised into /tags/[category]/[[value]] with its own +layout and TagsBrowserSidebar; the old monolithic /tags/+page is trimmed to a legacy redirect.
