TUI responsiveness: smooth degradation across terminal sizes #23

Description

@Antoinegtir

Why

Resize works, but the TUI still feels rigid at the edges:

  • At narrow widths some keybinds in the footer disappear even though there is room left.
  • The header truncates abruptly instead of degrading gracefully.
  • Device panel does not reflow when the right-side panel (perf / network) is hidden.
  • Long device names overflow the left column on tiny terminals.

What we want

  • Smooth degradation: every panel knows its own minimum width and collapses cleanly.
  • Footer packing should never leave horizontal whitespace bigger than a separator.
  • Header should show as much identity as fits; never blank out.
  • Re-test in 80x24, 120x30, 200x50, and ultra-wide (300+).

Acceptance

  • Manual matrix passes on the four sizes above.
  • No dashboard stacking on rapid resize.
  • Snapshot tests (if/when we add them) cover three widths.
