* fix(player): keyboard focus, contrast and ARIA for controls and settings

Dock and settings-panel icon buttons draw a 2px --pc-text ring on
:focus-visible, and Material's theme-coloured focus layer is off, so
keyboard focus shows on video in the light theme too. A focused selected
subtitle swatch now differs from one that is only selected.

Settings headings read --pc-text-secondary on denser glass
(--pc-glass-bg-dense, 0.86): 4.5:1 or more over mid-grey and white
frames. They wrap (overflow-wrap: anywhere, hyphens: auto), so long
German and Russian headings stay inside the sheet's heading column.

The settings panel is now radio groups only (SettingsRadioGroupDirective
over a CDK FocusKeyManager): one Tab stop per group on the checked option,
arrows, Home and End move focus without applying, and Space/Enter checks.
The dialog and its groups are named by real h2/h3/h4 headings, the
load-file action sits outside the subtitle radio group, the subtitle and
speed chips carry their value in their name ("Subtitles: English"), and
tune has aria-haspopup="dialog".

Adds a web E2E for the keyboard path in both themes with an axe check on
the open panel, and de/ru sheet heading wrapping; axe-core is a new dev
dependency for it.

* fix(player): arrows check settings radios; subtitle chip reads On

Review follow-up:
- Arrow keys, Home and End now check the settings radio they reach, as a
  native radio group does (the directive clicks it, so the template's
  handler applies the choice); an option the engine already reports as
  checked is not applied again.
- With subtitles on but no track marked selected yet (the engine can
  report the switch before the track list), the subtitle chip reads and
  announces "On" (new SUBTITLES_ON key, 19 locales) instead of "Off".
- The swatch row has 4px padding on every side, so the outer focus ring
  is not clipped at the scroll edge of the panel body.

* fix(player): re-apply a settings radio while a switch is pending

The arrow-key check skipped any option the engine still reported as
checked. Arrowing from audio track A to B and back to A before the engine
confirmed B therefore sent no command for A, and playback ended on B with
focus on A. An arrow move always lands on an option other than the last
one applied, so it now applies unconditionally.

Player controls now show a clear focus ring in the light theme too. The settings panel works with arrow keys and screen readers, and the subtitle and speed buttons announce their current value. Settings headings are easier to read over bright video and wrap in long translations instead of overflowing.
