palette: cut the per-keystroke cost of project-wide symbol search
Reported as sluggish up/down navigation in project scope. Measuring it turned up two things: * The arrow keys themselves aren't the problem, and it isn't list length: a synthetic down-key benchmark reads a flat ~62 ms/key from 20 to 400 options in BOTH scopes. That is a fixed floor in pilot.press() (Textual awaits a full refresh cycle per synthetic press), so the harness can't isolate real key latency — the number says nothing about the app. * What IS measurably worse in project scope is the work done per typed character: 29.5 ms vs 17.8 ms locally. Fix the part that's real. The trigram index already guarantees every hit contains the query, so ranking only has to ORDER them — an exact-substring rank (match position, then name length) costs one find() per row instead of a full fuzzy pass, and fetching 3x the display limit instead of 10x cuts the candidate set. As a bonus the highlight spans come straight from the match position. Per-keystroke _apply over a 30k-entry, 6-binary index, typing "m"->"main_": before project ~29.5 ms after project 10.8 / 11.2 / 11.9 / 13.2 / 14.2 ms (local, unchanged, for reference: 13.8 / 14.3 / 15.2 / 16.2 / 38.8 ms) Project scope is now cheaper per keystroke than local scope, whose fuzzy pass over every function is the remaining hot spot. Suite 191/0.
