Maurice e7ccbcdf86 feat(planner): add a long-press touch drag bridge
A finger never starts an HTML5 drag on Android, and the answer used to be
drag-drop-touch: a document-wide polyfill that turned every touch over a
draggable element into a drag. That cost the places list its scrolling
(#1432) and the map its one-finger pan (#1440), so it now only loads on
hybrid laptops.

This is the narrow version. It only watches touches that begin on a
draggable row inside a container that opted in, and it waits out a long
press before claiming the gesture, so a swipe is still a swipe. Once armed
it replays the real drag sequence on the element under the finger, which
leaves every existing drop handler working as it is.

Nothing is wired up to it yet.

/**
* Long-press touch drag for the three-column planner (#1616).
*
* Tablets run the desktop planner but have a coarse primary pointer, and a
* finger never starts an HTML5 drag on Android (#1265). The old answer was
* `drag-drop-touch`, a document-wide polyfill that turned every touch over a
* draggable element into a drag: the places list stopped scrolling (#1432) and
* the dblclick it synthesised zoomed the map (#1440). That polyfill is now
* confined to hybrid laptops (see touchDragPolyfill.ts) and drag was switched
* off outright wherever the pointer is coarse — which took tablets with it.
*
* This bridge takes the narrow path instead. It only watches touches that begin
* on a draggable row inside an opted-in `[data-touch-drag]` container, it waits
* out a long press before claiming the gesture — a swipe inside that window is
* a scroll and is left alone — and it synthesises nothing but the drag events
* themselves. Once armed it replays the real sequence (dragstart →
* dragenter/dragover/dragleave → drop → dragend) on the element under the
* finger, so every drop handler already in the planner keeps working unchanged.
*
* If the browser starts a drag of its own first — iPadOS does — the bridge
* stands down the moment it sees a dragstart it did not fire itself.
