Moxin Studio UI Patterns

1. Overview

Follow Makepad patterns for event handling and runtime updates. Use apply_over for dynamic changes and keep hover handling before action extraction.

2. UI workflow

1. Build layout in live_design! using theme constants.
2. Implement Widget::handle_event and call self.view.handle_event.
3. Handle hover events before Event::Actions early return.
4. Use apply_over for visibility and shader instance updates.
5. Use shader time or Event::NextFrame for animations.
