feat: numbered tab selection for launching projects into separate grid tabs

Space cycles tab number (1→2→...→9→off), digit keys 1-9 assign directly. Each number gets a unique color in the picker brackets. On launch, projects are grouped by tab number into separate grid tabs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
