cproudlock 13c46af5ce Rebuild the dashboard around what needs a person
The board was one card per source in a fixed grid, and both halves of that hurt.

Every source got the same small box whatever it had to say. Warranties showed 5
of 50 behind "and 45 more"; the crash card truncated at 4; a one-row card sat
beside a four-row card and left a hole. Nothing had room, which is the complaint
that started this: not enough space to relay the data.

And a box per source flattened priority. An enforcement failure and a warranty
notice looked equally urgent because each owned a card, while the largest type
on the page belonged to counts that are true every day and need nobody.

WHAT THE PAGE IS NOW

A severity rollup, one worst-first queue of everything that needs a person, and
a row of context beneath it.

The queue merges every critical and warning row and sorts them, so reading order
is work order. It is full width, which is where the room came from. Rows are
capped per source, because fifty expiring warranties must not bury two crashed
PCs, and what did not fit is named per source with a link to it - a bare "and 45
more" that leads nowhere is worse than saying nothing.

The rollup counts ROWS, not cards, and filters the board in place rather than
navigating away, so the counts and the rows cannot disagree.

Severity, position and permission were already declared per card and already
sorted on. The old layout threw that away; this only stops it.

WHAT WENT, AND WHY IT SHOULD NOT COME BACK

Four asset tiles plus an "All assets" tile: machines + PCs + printers + network
IS all assets, so the page showed a total beside its own addends at the same
weight. It is now a line under a rule, where a total belongs.

The printer strip. It carried the printer count a third time - the tile row and
"Total Printers" were already the same number - and "Online" equalled total, so
three tiles held one fact. A genuinely low cartridge already reaches the queue
through the printers-supplies card, which is the moment anyone wants it.

Three cards whose whole job was to display 0.

Recent Devices: the largest block on the page, listing five machines that were
all "In Use" with business unit "TBD". Recency is not a reason to look at
something.

CONTRACT 0.26.0: 'shortname'

Cards may declare a short label for their rows in the merged queue. Their
'title' is written as a heading - "Endpoints with crashes or shutdowns" - and as
a row badge it ran wider than the hostname it qualified, putting the badge
rather than the asset at the start of every line. CSS-truncating the title was
tried first and was worse: four consecutive rows reading "ENDPOINTS WITH CR..."
say nothing at all. Optional and defaults to the title, so a plugin that does
not declare one is unaffected. Additive field, minor bump.

ALSO: "silent 1 days"

A meta suffix is written for the plural case and the card cannot know the value.
One row saying it was a shrug; the merged queue puts every quiet endpoint on one
screen, so it said it five times in a column and read as broken. Now singularised
at exactly 1, on the first word, keeping what follows: "1 event (48h)", "silent 1
day". The test asserting ' ms' survives is what caught the first version turning
it into ' m'.

DashboardRow.vue is extracted because the queue and the context panels render
the same row, and the map tooltip, link fallbacks and chips are too easy to get
subtly different in a second copy.

Verified on screen against live data. Full suite 2178 passed, frontend 301.
