feat(ui): replace app-menu logo with a quick-access file toolbar

Remove the OCS-logo button and the dropdown menu it opened; the top strip
now shows direct New / Open / Save / Save As / Print buttons ahead of the
undo/redo controls. Drop the HELP and OPTIONS commands (HELP dumped text to
the command line, OPTIONS aliased the drafting-settings popup).

The app-menu overlay is gone, so its rendering code, MENU_ITEMS, four dead
messages, and the LOGO_RED / GEAR / HELP assets are removed. The recents
list it held is the only survivor — moved into OpenCADStudio.recent_files
via a new app/recent.rs, backing the Start page's Recent Documents panel.

Quick-access icons are redrawn in a cleaner style (file-plus, folder-open,
device-floppy, file-export, printer) and tinted light so they read on the
dark strip; FOLDER / DOC keep their old glyphs for the file browser.
