fix(compare): mobile measure-first cards to match the mockup

The grid sections (At a glance, Ofsted, Getting a place, Who goes there)
collapsed generically on mobile — grey label pills, full names wrapping
to 3 lines, no dots — making the page ~2x the mockup's height and
'significantly different' from the mobile design.

Each measure is now wrapped in a <Measure> that is display:contents on
desktop (so the label + cells still flow into the shared aligned grid,
unchanged) and a white card on mobile with compact [dot][short name]
[value] rows — matching the mobile mockup. The sticky school bar becomes
scrollable short-name pills on mobile too. Adds a shortName() util.

Desktop layout is unchanged (display:contents dissolves the wrapper).
Validated the card mechanism and real content shapes (report-card cell,
badges, %+chip rows) via static previews at both widths.
