Fixes batch 1: modal focus, campaign system, combat difficulty, origin desc

- Modal: focus into the dialog ONCE on open (not on every parent re-render), and
  prefer the first field over the X button — fixes focus jumping to the close
  button on each keystroke in the handout composer (and every other composer).
- Campaign edit: hide the System selector entirely (it's fixed after creation).
- Combat difficulty: rate against the PCs actually in the encounter (falls back to
  the roster) so adding a player updates the reading.
- Character builder: ancestry/background description is now a scrollable panel
  instead of clamped to 3 lines (no longer cut off on small screens).

223 unit + key e2e green.
