zoom multiplies the baseline instead of being swallowed by it

The 2x cap flattened the panel's zoom control into doing nothing, and the
reason is worth writing down: `fit` is the SAME NUMBER at every zoom level.
CSS `zoom` takes off `offsetWidth` exactly what it adds to the pixel ratio, so
the fit is zoom-invariant by construction — and capping it therefore caps every
zoom level to the same size.

So the cap applies to the baseline, the size at 100%, and zoom multiplies what
comes out. 100% stays exactly where it is; zooming in goes past 2x again.

Quarter steps now go all the way down rather than whole numbers under 2x. With
whole numbers, zooming out from a 2x baseline fell straight to 1x and halved
the board in one press. Cells stay whole at every quarter — 20px at 1.25x —
which was always the property that mattered, not the size of the step.

The resulting ladder over the panel's 70-160% range: 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2.0,
2.0, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, 3.0, 3.0. Eight of the ten presses move it; two land on
the same quarter, which is the price of keeping the grid even.

Also `overflow-hidden` on the box, so zooming past what the panel holds clips
rather than shoving the status line out of the way.
