fix(tests): fix 13 pre-existing vitest-browser spec failures

Fixes all remaining failing tests in the browser project. Root cause in
every case: Playwright CDP-based clicks/keyboard events do not reliably
trigger Svelte 5 onclick/onkeydown handlers. Pattern applied throughout:

- Buttons / result items: native `.element().click()` or
  `dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent('click', { bubbles: true }))`
- Keyboard events: `dispatchEvent(new KeyboardEvent('keydown', { key }))`
  on the target DOM element
- TipTap selection: `element.focus()` + Selection API +
  `document.dispatchEvent(new Event('selectionchange'))`
- ProseMirror focus for onFocus: `dispatchEvent(new FocusEvent('focus'))`

Also fixes pre-existing content/logic issues found during analysis:
- ChronikErrorCard, BulkDropZone, CorrespondenzHero: stale i18n strings
  and wrong ARIA role (combobox not textbox)
- RichtlinienRuleCard: beide beispielInput + beispielOutput required for
  arrow to render; querySelectorAll to get last code element
- admin/system/page: vi.unstubAllGlobals() in afterEach; strict-mode
  heading selector; per-call mockResolvedValueOnce for dual-card page
- DocumentList: add total prop + result count paragraph (test relied on it)
- PersonTypeahead keyboard navigation: pressKey() helper with native
  KeyboardEvent dispatch replaces userEvent.keyboard()
- PersonMultiSelect: native element clicks for result selection and
  chip removal; keydown dispatch on result div for Enter key test
