fix(board): harden grid edit transitions

* fix(dataTable): resizing a column no longer squashes the others

mantine-datatable's built-in column resize keeps the table's total
width fixed by shrinking every other column to compensate, which
collapses columns toward zero in a narrow widget (open upstream
issue, no fix: icflorescu/mantine-datatable#discussions-757).

Replaced it with our own resize handle that only ever changes the
width of the column being dragged - the table grows and scrolls
horizontally instead. Shared via usePersistedTableLayout, so docker,
downloads, and beszel-system-table all get it.

* feat(docker): enable hold-Shift advanced focus preview

The widget already renders differently for displayMode="advanced",
but was missing supportsAdvancedFocus: true, so the board never
offered the hold-Shift preview for it - matching downloads and
media-server, which both set this flag.

* style(docker): tighten row density, decouple icon size from row height

Circular avatar, denser row/footer padding, and action icons rendered
larger than their button via absolute positioning so they don't
inflate row height (the button stays small and fixed - it repeats
once per row, so any growth there multiplies across every visible
container).

* fix(data-table): harden shared column resizing

* fix(data-table): account for board scaling

* fix(data-table): compact shared headers

* fix(data-table): fit columns to widget

* fix(downloads): simplify advanced details

* test(widgets): align Docker advanced focus

* fix(downloads): widen expanded details

+# Logs
+
+The logs page shows recent Homarr application logs and continues updating as new events occur. Use it to investigate
+widget, integration, and server errors without opening the container logs separately.
+
+## Opening the logs page
+
+Navigate to **Management** > **Tools** > **Logs**. The page and widget log links are only available to users with the
+**View logs** permission.
+
+When a widget reports an error, **Check logs for more details** opens the logs page in a new tab and marks the time when
+the widget displayed the error. The related server error normally appears immediately above that marker. If those logs
+have already been removed from the retained history, the marker explains that they are no longer available.
+
+## Retained and live logs
+
+Homarr retains the latest 5,000 log events in Redis. Opening the page first loads this history and then continues with
+live events without a gap. The history is bounded, so older events are removed automatically.
+
+The history survives normal application restarts when the configured Redis instance persists its data. For complete
+platform-level history, startup failures, or events older than the retained limit, use the logs provided by Docker or
+your deployment platform.
+
+## Display controls
+
+The severity selector applies to both retained and live events. Selecting a different level redraws the existing view
+using that threshold. The font-size control changes the terminal text size and is remembered in the browser.
