UX polish: toned gold, cleaner labels, dropdown chevrons

- Toned down gold colors for better cross-monitor consistency
  - Header gold: #fee862 → #e5d058
  - Form labels: #ffe699 → #d9c580
- Removed text-shadow/outline from form labels (was smudgy)
- Removed background from nav floating labels
- More subtle nav hover background (halved opacity)
- Gold chevron on all dropdown selects for clarity
- Removed (environment) tag from channel key display
- Simplified channel key config text in about page
- Generate page: icon-only button for channel key
