Subject: [PATCH] feat(apple): use the brand purple as the app-wide accent
 color
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The macOS sidebar selection and item icons rendered in the system default
blue because the app had no global accent color — SwiftUI's `.tint` doesn't
reach the AppKit-backed sidebar. Add an AccentColor asset (the exact sRGB of
VniDropColors.brandPurple) and wire ASSETCATALOG_COMPILER_GLOBAL_ACCENT_COLOR_NAME
so the accent applies at the OS level everywhere, including the sidebar.
