dashboard: hide table columns, drop terminal paste button, loading typewriter dots

[law-chain-hot]

Follow-up tweaks after testing #845 (which is now merged). Frontend-only, 4 files.

• Boxes table (desktop): hide the Created + Resource Quota columns (still shown on the mobile card).
• Terminal: remove the paste button — native Cmd/Ctrl+V already pastes into the terminal — and drop the now-dead pasteIntoTerminalIframe util.
• LoadingFallback: bigger terminal boot screen + typewriter ellipsis (1→2→3 dots, looping).

Verified: dashboard build + targeted eslint clean.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Updated the loading experience with a typewriter-style “booting console” ellipsis.
• UI Improvements
  • Simplified the desktop Boxes table by removing less critical columns to reduce visual clutter.
• Behavior Changes
  • Terminal pasting now relies on the browser’s native paste shortcut (Cmd/Ctrl+V) instead of a separate paste action.
• UI Improvements
  • Adjusted the Dashboard page height calculations to improve banner/padding alignment across viewports.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The dashboard table drops the Resource Quota and Created columns on desktop, the loading fallback now animates its ellipsis with cycling dots, the terminal frame removes clipboard paste handling, and dashboard page height calculations switch to a 60px base.

Changes

Dashboard UI updates

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Desktop table layout apps/dashboard/src/components/BoxTable/index.tsx	Desktop grid sizing, headers, and row cells remove the Resource Quota and Created columns, including the created timestamp computation.
Typewriter ellipsis apps/dashboard/src/components/LoadingFallback.tsx	LoadingFallback stores dot count in state, advances it on an interval, and renders the booting-console indicator from repeated dots.
Paste handling cleanup apps/dashboard/src/components/boxes/BoxTerminalFrame.tsx, apps/dashboard/src/components/boxes/terminalIframeSrc.ts	The clipboard paste helper is deleted, and BoxTerminalFrame removes the paste button and frame ref wiring while keeping iframe registration on load.
Dashboard height layout apps/dashboard/src/pages/Dashboard.tsx	The dashboard content height variables and fallback min-height switch from a 3.5rem offset to a 60px offset, including banner subtraction.

Poem

A bunny hops by with a console cheer,
Three little dots go blink-blink near.
The table trimmed, the terminal gleams,
And dashboard heights fit startup dreams. 🐰
