fix(dashboard): resizable mission sidebar and cleaner card header

- Make the mission split sidebar drag-resizable (220–560px, persisted) so
  long mission titles aren't trapped behind a fixed-width column.
- Move card tags (autopilot/health/status) to a row below the title and
  drop the overflowing "Active: …" line.
- Collapse mission creation to a single AI-driven entry point: rename
  Sparkles to "Create New Mission" and remove the manual "+" button.

+Mission view sidebar and list-card UX fixes.
+
+- **Resizable mission sidebar**: the desktop split sidebar is now drag-resizable via a vertical handle (also keyboard-accessible with arrow keys). Width persists to `localStorage` (`fusion:mission-sidebar-width`), bounded 220–560px, default 300px. Previously fixed at ~284px with `flex-shrink: 0`.
+- **Mission card title no longer truncates aggressively**: tags (autopilot zap, health badge, status pill) moved to a second row below the title so the title can use the full card width. Removed the redundant overflow-prone `Active: …` line that was sometimes spilling outside the card.
+- **Single AI-driven create flow**: removed the manual `+ New Mission` button from the sidebar header and bottom footer. The Sparkles button (now labeled "Create New Mission") is the only entry point — the dead `handleCreateMission` callback and unused `activeSliceLabel` were removed too.
