No prefers-reduced-motion handling for animated components #89

Description

@ndii-dev

Transitions/animations (dialog/sheet open-close, any loading spinners, onboarding-banner) don't appear to respect prefers-reduced-motion. This is a straightforward, testable a11y gap distinct from the contrast/live-region issues above.

Definition of done:

  • All CSS transitions/animations gated behind a reduced-motion media query fallback
  • Verified via a test asserting animation duration is near-zero under simulated prefers-reduced-motion: reduce

Before opening a PR for this issue, read CONTRIBUTING.md.

This is not a starter-issue. The Definition of done above is the full
acceptance criteria, not a subset to sample from — a PR that addresses part
of it is an unfinished issue, not a smaller one. Your PR must include, in
the PR description itself:

  • Root cause / design-decision rationale in your own words — not a restatement of this issue
  • Every Definition of done bullet above addressed explicitly, with a one-line note on how
  • Evidence the code actually runs: pasted test/build output, a screen recording or before/after screenshots for UI changes, or real (non-mocked) logs for network/contract-facing work
  • New or updated tests included and shown passing (paste the output)
  • Any adjacent/related behavior this issue calls out re-verified, not assumed unaffected

PRs missing these will be sent back before review, not reviewed and rejected — please do this up front.
