Major improvements to UI state management and user preferences:
- Add theme toggle with dark/light mode support
- Implement Zustand persist middleware for UI state
- Add ui-store for panel layout preferences (dock width, heights, tabs)
- Persist tool settings (active tool, size, opacity, hardness, etc.)
- Persist canvas view preferences (grid, rulers, snap-to-grid)
- Persist shape tool settings
- Persist collapsible section states
- Fix canvas coordinate transformation for centered rendering
- Constrain checkerboard and grid to canvas bounds
- Add icons to all tab buttons and collapsible sections
- Restructure panel-dock to use persisted state
Storage impact: ~3.5KB total across all preferences
Storage keys: tool-storage, canvas-view-storage, shape-storage, ui-storage

Reorganize the panel dock to use tabs more efficiently by moving the
Color Panel from the always-visible section into the Adjustments tab.
Changes:
- **Panel Dock Layout**:
* Always visible: Layers Panel only (50% height, min 300px)
* Tabbed section: Takes up remaining 50% of dock space
- **Adjustments Tab**: Now contains (in order):
1. Colors (collapsible, default open)
2. Filters (collapsible, default open)
3. Selection (collapsible, default open)
4. Transform (collapsible, default open)
- **Tools Tab**: Contains:
1. Shape Settings (collapsible, default open)
- **History Tab**: Contains:
1. History Panel (full height, not collapsible)
Benefits:
- More flexible space allocation
- Layers Panel gets 50% of vertical space (was 400px fixed)
- All adjustment features grouped together in one tab
- Cleaner organization with collapsible sections
- More canvas workspace visible by default
- Consistent with professional image editor patterns

Restructure the UI to match professional image editors (Photoshop, Affinity)
with a clean, predictable layout that maximizes canvas space.

- **Center**: Maximized canvas workspace (flex-1)
- **Right Side** (280px): Unified panel dock with hybrid organization:
* Always visible: Layers Panel (400px) + Color Panel (200px)
* Tabbed sections: Adjustments, Tools, History
* Collapsible panels within tabs for efficient space usage
New Components:
- `components/editor/tool-options.tsx`: Horizontal tool options bar
* Shows context-sensitive options for active tool
* Drawing tools: color, size, opacity, hardness, flow
