/* ----- Mega menu (desktop dropdowns) -------------------------------------
   Editorial think-tank aesthetic: rich type hierarchy, restrained motion,
   warm-toned glass surface. Each nav item with `.has-menu` shows a panel
   below the navbar containing grouped sub-links and an optional feature
   panel that anchors a contextual highlight.

   Variants:
   - `.navbar-menu`            base, ~22rem single column
   - `.navbar-menu-wide`       ~36rem two columns
   - `.navbar-menu-mega`       ~46rem two columns + feature panel

   Edge-aware positioning: leftmost item anchors to its left edge,
   rightmost to its right edge, middle items center under their parent.
   A JS clamp in site-nav.js (clampOpenMenu) provides a viewport-overflow
   safety net for any case the static rules miss. */

/* Full-width mega menu: every dropdown spans the full viewport width and
   sits flush below the navbar (which is 64px tall). The actual content
   is constrained to the same max-width as the navbar inner (1400px) and
