feat(know-your-world): add hot/cold debug panel and production debug mode

- Add ?debug=1 URL param to unlock debug mode in production
- Debug mode persists in localStorage once unlocked
- Add hot/cold debug panel showing all enable conditions:
  - Assistance level, user toggle, fine pointer, magnifier, mobile dragging
  - Overall enabled/disabled status
  - Current feedback type and target region
- Change debug flags from build-time to runtime gating
- Fix isDevelopment reference in AppNavBar dropdown menu
