fix(compare): give the trend chart its own definite canvas height so the gap note can't squash it

The chart note (and the 2-row mobile chip legend) lived inside the fixed
360px/420px chartBox and competed with the canvas for it, so a longer
caption — e.g. the new KS4 gap note — shrank the mobile canvas to ~178px
and tripped the e2e >220px guard. The canvas now owns a definite height
(280px mobile / 380px desktop) with chips above and the note flowing
below at natural size, so neither can eat the plot. Verified on staging:
patched canvas renders 280px vs the squashed 178px.

-/**
- * Special schools, pupil referral units and alternative provision teach pupils
- * with SEND or outside mainstream settings. Their pupils sit the same KS2/KS4
- * assessments but very few reach the mainstream "expected standard", so the
- * headline attainment measures — and any comparison to the England average —
- * are not a fair judgement of the school. Callers use this to drop the
- * mainstream-benchmark framing (deltas, "below England", national markers)
- * rather than portray these schools as failing.
- *
- * Detection is by establishment type: every DfE special-school type contains
- * "special" (e.g. "Community special school", "Academy special converter/sponsor
- * led", "Foundation special school", "Non-maintained special school", "Free
- * schools special", "Other independent special school"); PRUs and alternative
- * provision are matched by name. Special schools carry a mainstream `phase`
- * (Primary/Secondary/All-through), so `phase` alone can't identify them.
