Subject: [PATCH] iPad: lead the dashboard with a "Needs you" section

The Home dashboard only surfaced running sessions and rollup counts, so chats
blocking on you (an approval or your next prompt) were visible only as sidebar
washes. Add a "Needs you" card pinned above the stat cards (amber header +
border) listing sessions where status.needsYou(disposition) holds, each tapping
into its detail. Mirrors the Mac home's "Needs attention" lead. Shared by
iPhone and iPad; hidden when nothing's waiting. Verified in the iPad simulator.
