Lucas WintherandClaude Opus 5 b278dcaf12 fix(ui): namespace carry-meter accent token to avoid shadcn contrast regression

A bare --accent in src/index.css silently overrode shadcn's own
--accent/--accent-foreground pairing (near-white background paired with
near-black text) with the design contract's dark teal, without touching
the paired foreground. That dropped the computed contrast ratio on every
outline/ghost button, select item, badge link and dialog close button
that uses bg-accent/text-accent-foreground to 3.23:1 -- below WCAG AA's
4.5:1 minimum for text.

Renamed the token to --budget-accent everywhere it's declared and
consumed (src/index.css, src/ui/components/PostTable.tsx's carry meter),
leaving shadcn's own --accent/--accent-foreground pair untouched. The
other five contract tokens (--paper, --ink, --rule, --surplus,
--overspend) don't collide with any shadcn token name in
styles/globals.css, so they are unchanged.
