Subject: [PATCH] feat(t5): Bewegungs-Sprache mit Tokens, Stufen und Budget
 (T5a A11)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- src/lib/motion/tokens.ts und --motion-* in globals.css: Dauern,
  Kurven und Feder an einer Stelle; Beute-Bühne liest dieselben Werte.
- AppMotion: LazyMotion strict, Bewegungs-Code (domAnimation) als ein
  asynchroner Chunk, 28 kB gzip; check:motion-budget im Docker-Build
  neben dem 3D-Budget (Spec 17.6).
- PresenceList: abgehakte Zeilen blenden aus, die übrigen rücken nur bei
  „Voll“ nach; „Dezent“ blendet nur, „Aus“ sofort. Die Zeile geht nach
  der festen Verzögerung, auch wenn der Server schweigt (Spec 17.5);
  Fokus wandert zum nächsten Haken, auch ohne Bewegungs-Chunk.
- Overlays (Sheet, Dialog, Menü, Select) über Base-UI-Start/Ende-Stile
  mit Token-Zeiten; Verschiebung und Skalierung nur bei motion-full.
- Kein transition-all, kein Hover-Heben, keine Breiten-Animation von
  Daten; Skeleton erst nach 150 ms; Wächter-Regeln für alles davon.
