patch: general improvements and fixes

[davedbase]

This PR is derived from some research and comments that came out of a HopeUI document I stumbled on: https://github.com/hope-ui/hope-ui/blob/main/docs/solid-primitives-eval.md. These were not reported but to be proactive in fixing details I've attempted exploring the issues and correcting them.

Responds to hope-ui's solid-primitives-eval.md, which flagged a suspected "transform-boundary hydration hazard" in createSignal(fn)/createMemo-backed primitives. Traced actual solid-js@2.0.0-beta.20/@solidjs/signals internals and built a real server-render→hydrate round-trip test harness (spawns a genuine node subprocess so the package under test resolves its published dist build, not workspace src) to prove/disprove it empirically rather than by inspection alone. Result: the pattern hydrates cleanly across controlled-signal, a11y, pagination, and state-machine — evidence points at hope-ui's own non-standard SSR harness, not a general solid-primitives/solid-js defect.

Along the way, found and fixed real bugs via an 8-angle self-review of the diff:

• interaction: opt-in inert option on createHideOutside/ariaHideOutside, ref-counted alongside aria-hidden. Fixed a bug where inert was applied even to nodes deliberately left alone because they already carry an author-managed aria-hidden — broke that "not ours to manage" invariant.
• focus: new standalone createFocusRestore primitive (restore focus without trapping, for non-modal Popover/Tooltip). Fixed a stale-closure race shared with createFocusTrap — a fast reactivate-before-restore-fires cycle could restore focus to the wrong element — via one shared scheduleFocusRestore helper instead of two copies of the same bug.
• scroll + interaction: module-scope ref-count/observer state hardened against duplicate installed package copies via a new shared globalRegistry() helper in @solid-primitives/utils (also fixed an instance-id collision the extraction would otherwise have introduced).
• a11y: createFormControl's dataset converted from createMemo to a plain getter — removes a hydration-id-consuming call for a value cheap enough that memoizing it buys nothing.
• Hydration harness: dead import removed, console-patch timing fixed so it no longer misses async/deferred hydration-mismatch warnings (this surfaced a real stale-dist-build false positive during development, now documented as a known footgun), reentrancy guard, and caching so repeated fixtures don't re-spawn subprocesses.
• Removed a duplicate contains() helper in scroll in favor of the existing one in @solid-primitives/utils.

The only new public export across all of this is globalRegistry in @solid-primitives/utils — everything else is internal refactoring or bug fixes with no signature changes.

Some additional adjustments were added:

notification**'s createNotificationPermission.requestPermissiongainedaffects(permission)soisPending(permission)now works for callers who want the standard idiom, alongside the existingpending` accessor (kept for backward compatibility — pure addition, no breaking change).

clipboard — I initially added the same pattern, but discovered through direct experimentation that affects() only holds its pending mark for a single flush cycle unless it's called inside a real action() generator. Clipboard's write is a plain async function, so the fix would have looked adopted but silently done nothing across the real async gap. I reverted it rather than ship something ineffective. This constraint isn't clearly documented anywhere, so I wrote it up in project memory.

controlled-props**'s BoolProp/NumberProp/RangeProp/StringPropretyped fromComponent

toVoidComponent

`, since none of them accept or render children.

All four packages pass their full test suites and typecheck cleanly, each fix verified by reverting it and confirming the corresponding test fails, then restoring.

Also a number of banner comments were removed
