+ * useScrollIntoView — keeps the ref'd row visible inside its enclosing
+ * `<scrollbox>` whenever the focus accessor is true.
+ *
+ * OpenTUI's `ScrollBoxRenderable` has built-in *keyboard* scrolling but does
+ * NOT auto-scroll to follow a programmatically-focused child (the app moves
+ * its own cursor via the yazi nav store, so the scrollbox never sees a key
+ * for row movement). Every scrollable panel therefore drifts out of view the
+ * moment the cursor crosses the viewport edge.
+ *
+ * Attach the returned `ref` callback to the element that represents the
+ * focused row of a scrollable list and call the hook with a `when()` that is
+ * true for exactly that row (e.g. `() => index() === focus()`). Whenever the
+ * accessor flips true, the nearest ScrollBoxRenderable is scrolled just enough
+ * to bring the element back into the viewport — a "nearest-edge" scroll:
+ *   • scroll up only if the row's top is clipped above the viewport,
+ *   • scroll down only if the row's bottom is clipped below the viewport,
+ * never snapping more than necessary (matches yazi list behaviour).
+ *
+ * Timing: for ordinary cursor movement (j/k) the list layout does not change
+ * — only background colour and the cursor glyph flip — so the focused row's
+ * Yoga-computed position is already valid when this effect fires, and the
+ * scroll is applied synchronously. On first mount / content population the
