/**
* Chrome Tint
* -
* Tint the browser chrome (status bar + home indicator area) to match
* the site header / footer when those elements are in view.
*
* - top of screen (status bar / notch / Dynamic Island):
* controlled by the <meta name="theme-color"> tag. iOS Safari
* picks up runtime updates.
*
* - bottom of screen (home indicator area, behind the address bar):
* a fixed pseudo-element filled with `env(safe-area-inset-bottom)`
* takes its background from a body class that this module toggles
* when the footer is in view.
*
* The header color (#032F46) is the darker end of the .site-header
* gradient. The footer color (#102C45) is the sRGB equivalent of
* the `--color-cwc-blue-02` token used by .site-footer. If those
* colors change in source, update HEADER_COLOR / FOOTER_COLOR below.
*
* - "In view" = any pixel of the element overlaps the viewport.
*
* No-ops if either the header or footer is missing, or if
* IntersectionObserver isn't supported (older browsers).
