ss-dev-00 1ca346a52b fix(desktop): capture the cover drawer's opener once across a StrictMode replay
The drawer captured `document.activeElement` in a layout effect with an
empty dependency list. The app root is wrapped in `React.StrictMode`, which
in development replays every effect as setup -> cleanup -> setup, so by the
second setup the drawer had already focused itself and recorded *itself* as
the element it had covered. On a real close the deferred restore then
focused a node React had detached, which is a silent no-op that drops focus
to `<body>` -- keyboard-stranded, no visible focus ring, in the exact dev
build people use the feature in.

A one-shot ref guards the capture. Refs survive the replay, so the second
setup keeps the opener the first one recorded. The flag is deliberately not
reset in cleanup: the only cleanup it sees before a real close is the
simulated one, which is precisely what it exists to ignore.

The focus-slot claim stays unconditional. Re-claiming on the replayed setup
is what makes the first cleanup's deferred restore stand down, so the
coordinator was already behaving correctly here -- only the capture was
wrong.

The existing focus-handoff tests could not see this because they render
without StrictMode, so the new case renders under it via
`render(..., { reactStrictMode: true })`. Verified to fail at the previous
head (focus lands on `HTMLBodyElement` instead of the opener) and to pass
with the guard.
