Subject: [PATCH] style: misc UI fixes (#37691)

- Action view sidebar: rename `job-brief-item` to
`action-view-sidebar-item`, fix trash icon overflow on long artifact
names, align artifact and workflow hover styles with the jobs list
- Branches: expand new PR button cell to three wide so the button is not
clipped on narrow viewports
- Dashboard feed: add `tw-max-w-full` so long issue titles truncate
- Reactions: tighten label padding
