  • controller nav should turn on automatically when controller is plugged in, idk cant test i dont have one
  • unified focus ring on everything when tabbing or when you turn on arrow key navigation
  • some elements refactored to work better with new navigation engine
  • arrow keys in player dont seek/change volume if arrow nav is on, but navigate between icons, navigate to seekbar or volume to change those
  • left tests behind so it can be tested for future updates idk, only kept tests for homescreen and stuff, removed tests for simple layouts
  • idk stuff
  • 6.5k lines are just tests/fixtures (all 31 are test.ts/test.tsx files) for navigation features, can be removed if u want, only 2633 lines are actual src code

Add optional directional nav engine, turns on by itself for tv browsers/gamepads

Expands gamepad polling outside the player, routed through nav engine as well

Also fixes several pre-existing accessibility gaps found along the way: a
missing focus ring below Chromium 86, five unreachable clickables, a stray
positive tabindex, leaking keyboard listeners, and a closing overlay that
stayed navigable during its exit transition.

Also some refactors of existing UI so they work better
