🎨 Palette: Improve accessibility labels for lists

💡 What: Updated MacroRow, SharedMacroRow, and ScriptRow to use dynamic accessibility labels and tooltips.
🎯 Why: Generic labels like "Edit" create a poor experience for screen reader users and mouse users alike, as they lack context of what is being acted upon in repeated lists.
♿ Accessibility: Screen readers will now announce "Edit My Macro" instead of just "Edit", disambiguating actions across list items.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved accessibility for icon-only list actions by updating Edit/Delete help text and accessibility labels to include the target item’s name.
    • Added context-aware, dynamically generated tooltips and accessibility strings for macros and scripts, with sensible fallbacks (“Unnamed Macro”, “Untitled Script”) when names are missing.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR updates list-row action labels in macro and script views to include item-specific names, adds palette guidance for that pattern, and changes the workflow patch script’s log-search command.

Changes

Dynamic accessibility labels

Layer / File(s) Summary
Palette guidance
.Jules/palette.md
Adds a dated entry describing item-specific help and accessibilityLabel text for repeated icon-only actions.
Macro row labels
XboxControllerMapper/XboxControllerMapper/Views/Macros/MacroListView.swift
SharedMacroRow and MacroRow use macro-specific text for Edit and Delete actions, with fallback strings when the macro name is empty.
Script row labels
XboxControllerMapper/XboxControllerMapper/Views/Scripts/ScriptListView.swift
ScriptRow replaces generic Edit and Delete labels with script-specific text, using a fallback when the script name is empty.

Workflow patch command

Layer / File(s) Summary
Log search command
patch_workflow.sh
Updates the substitution used against .github/workflows/test.yml to search with grep -E and surrounding context instead of tail -200.

174-221: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Visible label and accessibility label can diverge when macro.name is empty.

displayName falls back to "Unnamed Macro" for Edit/Delete help/accessibilityLabel, but line 191 still renders Text(macro.name) directly. If macro.name is empty, the visible row shows blank text while VoiceOver announces "Edit Unnamed Macro" — a mismatch between visual and accessible content.

Duplicate fallback logic — reuse displayName.

displayName fallback likely unreachable here.

AutomationMacro's initializer normalizes name via normalizedName, trimming whitespace and substituting "Untitled Macro" for blank input, so macro.name.isEmpty should never be true in practice. The local "Unnamed Macro" fallback is effectively dead code and also uses different wording than the domain's own fallback ("Untitled Macro"), which could confuse future readers.

♻️ Optional simplification
-        let displayName = macro.name.isEmpty ? "Unnamed Macro" : macro.name
+        let displayName = macro.name

This version avoids `let` bindings within SwiftUI ViewBuilders completely to bypass a compiler bug that was causing an intermittent test failure.

198-234: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Consistent with MacroRow pattern; minor duplication.

The script.name.isEmpty ? "Untitled Script" : script.name fallback is repeated inline five times across the row body. Extracting it into a computed property would reduce duplication and avoid re-evaluating the ternary on every render, without needing a let inside the ViewBuilder body (keeping consistent with the commit's stated workaround for the SwiftUI compiler bug).
