editor: structure build-start/end cues + menu hover/click SFX (#378)

* wip sfx

* wip audios

* feat(editor): structure build-start/end cues + menu hover/click SFX

Sound design pass for the build/items experience:

- Split structure-build into a start cue (draft begins) and end cue
  (commit). Wall/fence fire start on the first click; slab/ceiling/zone
  tick start on every non-closing vertex; roof on the first corner.
- Doors and windows now use the structure-end cue on place + move;
  shelves use item-place instead.
- New menu_hover (round-robin retired in favour of a single sample) and
  menu_click cues wired to the Build/Items main categories, item-catalog
  tiles, the icon rail / tab bar, and the bottom action menu (via the
  shared ActionButton).
- Refresh item_pick / item_place / item_rotate samples; drop the
  now-unused numbered menu_hover variations.

* fix(editor): silence forEach return lint in updateSFXVolumes

* chore(editor): convert SFX wavs to mp3 to shrink assets

Re-encode all SFX samples as 128kbps mp3 (~94% smaller, transparent for
short UI cues) and point the player at the .mp3 sources. Drops the .wav
originals; the freshly converted item_pick/place/rotate.mp3 override the
older committed mp3s.
