Improved keyboard accessibility by fixing a "focus black hole" where the sidebar expand button was invisible but focusable when the sidebar was collapsed. Also added proper ARIA attributes to sidebar controls.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 17016989375795285729 started by @aarjava

- Added `focus-visible:opacity-100` to the hidden expand button in the sidebar to ensure it remains visible when focused via keyboard.
- Added `id="app-sidebar"` to the sidebar `<aside>` element.
- Added `aria-controls="app-sidebar"` to both sidebar toggle buttons.
- Ensured `aria-expanded` attributes are correctly set.
- Created `.Jules/palette.md` to document accessibility learnings regarding invisible focusable elements.
