/* ForgeCRO v3.1 (2026-09-27): only what aso-v3.css does not already provide.
 *
 * aso-v3.css is the aqsashahzad.com sheet, @scope (.aso-v3). ForgeCRO pages now use its own
 * components by name: opener, ch/ch-grid, proc, pk-ladder, faq-list, stats, talk-stage, ftr-*,
 * aso-contact-card/-steps/-mail/-badges. This file holds the ForgeCRO chrome (header, drawer,
 * footer rows), plain-markup versions of rules aso-v3.css writes for Elementor wrappers (the
 * contact split, the article grid), the widgets carried from v2 (tool frame, hero video, URL
 * bar, quiz) and a light theme for the forms that now sit in a white card.
 *
 * TRAPS (all bit this port before):
 *  - inside @scope, a bare `.fc-hdr` never matches the scope ROOT: write :scope.fc-hdr.
 *  - a selector starting with `html` never matches inside @scope: keep html.js rules outside.
 *  - `:scope{padding-block:var(--section)!important}` hits every .aso-v3 root: chrome opts out.
 *  - never a blanket 44px min-height on footer links (it doubled the footer).
 *  - an <svg> without a size renders at 300x150: every icon here is sized.
