Pamela Chia 6d4263bf1a fix(www): pricing table spacing and sticky offset (#49532)
Multi-line cells in the /pricing comparison table rendered as one
cramped block once lines wrapped: the stacked values had no gap between
entries, and the continuation lines' `leading-4` is a no-op at
`text-xs`. At the same narrow desktop widths (1024 to 1280px), category
headers clipped behind the sticky plan header because their hardcoded
`top-[108px] xl:top-[84px]` offsets desync from the plan header's
variable height.

**Changed:**
- **Value cells get vertical padding**: the value tds were `pl-6 pr-2`
with no vertical padding, so tall multi-line cells pressed text against
the row dividers; they now carry `py-5` like the row-label column (text
ink sits ~21px off both borders, measured).
- **Stacked price lines read as separate entries**: `gap-2` between
entries while wrapped lines inside one entry stay tight (`leading-4`),
so each price reads as its own block. Two earlier iterations that only
widened the entry gap (`gap-1`, then `gap-2` with looser `leading-5`
wraps) reviewed as still-cramped; the missing cell padding was the
dominant cause. Mobile untouched.
- **Category headers never clip behind the plan header**: a
ResizeObserver measures the sticky thead's real height and publishes
`--pricing-category-top` as a CSS variable on the table; the category
header consumes it via `var()`, keeping the old 108px/84px values as
pre-hydration fallbacks so SSR paint is unchanged. Runs in a layout
effect so the first client paint already has the measured value.

**Note:** I rejected re-tuning the hardcoded offsets: numbers desyncing
from the header's content-driven height is the root cause, and new
constants re-break on the next copy or breakpoint change.

## Before / after

**Before** (prod: multi-line prices pressed against the row dividers as
one dense block; rows clipped under the sticky category header):

**After** (this PR: padded cells, each price its own block, headers pin
flush):

## To test

Tested on the Vercel preview (Playwright, measured values in parens):
- [x] At a 1024 to 1280px viewport, open /pricing and find the Pipelines
row: the 3 price lines in the Pro and Team cells read as distinct blocks
(row-gap 8px between entries, tight 16px line boxes within an entry,
20px cell padding; verified on localhost pre-push and on the preview,
light and dark)
- [x] Multi-line cell text no longer touches the row dividers: ~21px
from border to text ink top and bottom (was 0-3px)
- [x] At the same width, scroll the whole comparison table: Database and
Auth section headers pin flush below the plan-price header, with no row
text clipped between them (pinned category top within 0.2px of thead
bottom)
- [x] At ~1800px wide: Pipelines and Point in time recovery (Enterprise)
cells show the same separated lines (PITR Enterprise is a single
wrapping string, renders cleanly)
- [x] Resize across 1280px after load: category headers stay flush under
the plan header (ResizeObserver refires; same 0.2px alignment after
1900px to 1150px resize without reload)
- [x] Below 1024px: the mobile comparison view is unchanged
- [x] Added: cold navigation to /pricing#compare-plans lands with
`--pricing-category-top` already applied (151px at 1150px width) and the
pinned header flush
- [x] Added: no new console errors versus the page's pre-existing
baseline
