Subject: [PATCH 1/4] refactor(desktop): add shared Field form-dialog primitive

Dialog forms each hand-rolled their own label+control+hint stack (or
borrowed the settings-surface ListRow), so gaps and hint styling drifted
between the profile, cron, and webhook dialogs. Add a single Field /
FieldHint primitive for label-over-control dialog fields and adopt it in
the create/rename profile dialogs as the first consumers.

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] fix(desktop): unify overlay-pane padding and add primary
 PanelAction

Overlay panes each set their own top padding, so the Settings sidebar and
Panel headers sat at different heights than System/Agents and the close X
(the #67759 regression). Hoist the shared beside-the-X clearance into
OVERLAY_TOP_CLEARANCE, keep the taller pad only on OverlayMain (which sits
under the X), tighten OverlayMain's gutters, and drop the one-off Settings
override. Also give PanelAction a `primary` variant so a detail header can
promote its main action to a filled button.

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] refactor(desktop): fold cron Blueprints into the New Job
 dialog
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Blueprints lived behind a separate Jobs/Blueprints tab with its own card
gallery — a bespoke surface no other overlay uses. Remove the tab and make
blueprints a "Start from" dropdown at the top of the New Job dialog
(default "Custom" = the manual editor); picking one swaps the form for that
blueprint's typed slots. Also promote the detail-view "Trigger now" button
to a primary action and adopt the shared Field primitive.

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] refactor(desktop): webhooks create form uses shared
 Field; drop status pill

The create dialog used the settings-surface ListRow/ToggleRow inside a
modal, which read differently from every other form dialog, and the detail
header carried an enabled/disabled pill that rendered as a stray dash.
Switch the form to the shared Field primitive (+ Switch) and remove the
pill.
