refactor(#292 review): extract NAVBAR_COLLAPSE_BREAKPOINT constant (F2)

The AppShell navbar breakpoint and both burger toggles' hiddenFrom/visibleFrom
must be equal, or the sidebar becomes unreachable on tablet widths (the round-1
regression). A comment guarded that before; now a shared const does. Add
NAVBAR_COLLAPSE_BREAKPOINT='md' to sidebar-atom.ts and reference it from the navbar
breakpoint (global-app-shell) + both toggles (app-header). aside.breakpoint and the
sm brand/search gates are intentionally separate contracts, left untouched.

 ### Added
 
+- **Place several images side by side in a row.** A new "Inline (side by
+  side)" alignment mode in the image bubble menu renders consecutive inline
+  images as a row that wraps onto the next line on narrow screens. Unlike the
+  float modes, text does not wrap around inline images. The mode round-trips
+  losslessly through markdown as `data-align`, like the other alignment
+  values.

 - **Editable captions for images.** Images gain an optional caption shown
   below them, edited inline from the image bubble menu and stored as a `caption` attribute. Captions round-trip
   losslessly through markdown as a `data-caption` attribute on the image, so
