feat(web): previewText truncation helper for summary cards

One-line lede for list cards: collapses whitespace, prefers the first
sentence within budget, else word-boundary truncation with an ellipsis.
Pure and rune-based (multibyte-safe). Table-driven tests cover empty,
short, first-sentence, word-boundary, and multibyte cases.
