fix: cream background fills entire terminal, bottom bar pinned to bottom

- PadLine now wraps entire line content with Background(ScreenBg) so
  cream color shows behind all text, not just the right-edge padding
- Added PadLineWithBg for active row warm highlight (#f8f0e6)
- Restructured View() to pin bottom bar at terminal bottom with blank
  fill between file list and footer
- Removed 'd remove' from bottom bar keybindings to match web reference
