feat: Dokploy-style sidebar layout for site pages

Sidebar takes full viewport height with Pulse logo at top. No Header
on site pages — UtilityBar in content area provides theme toggle, app
launcher, notifications, and user menu. Non-site authenticated pages
keep static Header. No footer on dashboard pages.
