Move index building off the client so there is no client-side HTML fetching
or DOM parsing (resolves Codacy's variable-fetch and DOMParser flags on the
read-only, same-origin index build).
- Add GET /v3/settings/search-index (pages_v3.py): renders the settings
partials server-side and extracts each field's anchor id, key, label,
tooltip, and section with a small stdlib HTMLParser, then caches the result
keyed on the installed-plugin set. Parsing the rendered HTML keeps anchor
ids identical to the live DOM, so the index cannot drift.
- settings-search.js: buildIndex() now does a single fetch of the literal
endpoint + .json(); removed the per-partial fetch loop, DOMParser, scanDoc,
CORE_TABS, and the plugin-id allowlist. Search, keyboard nav, navigation,
and the per-tab filter are unchanged.
Net: fewer requests and no client-side HTML parsing. Verified with a new
endpoint test in test_web_settings_ui.py (12 pass) and the headless-Chromium
test (tooltip, filter, search navigate + flash all green).

- Validate plugin ids against a strict allowlist (mirroring the server's
_SAFE_PLUGIN_ID_RE) before they can appear in a fetch path, so the request
URL is never built from unvalidated input (Codacy: user-controlled URL).
- Document that the fetched HTML is parsed into an inert document (scripts
never run, never inserted into the live DOM) purely to read field text for
the search index.
- Declare block-scoped locals with const instead of var where they were
nested inside conditionals (Codacy: var not at function root).
No behavior change; re-verified with ESLint and the headless-Chromium test.

Extract isNodeHidden() and revealNode() helpers so revealAncestors drops
below the cyclomatic-complexity threshold. No behavior change; verified with
the headless-Chromium test.

Refactor the two new modules to clear the flagged patterns without any
behavior change:
- Build the search dropdown with DOM nodes + textContent instead of
innerHTML string concatenation, removing the XSS sinks and the manual
escapeHtml helper it needed.
- Replace numeric index access (index[i], terms[j], opts[idx],
currentResults[i]) with array iteration methods, NodeList.item(), and
Array.prototype.at() to clear detect-object-injection.
- Use === via a shared termsMatch() helper, optional-catch binding, and
drop a useless initial assignment.
Verified with ESLint (eslint:recommended + eslint-plugin-security) at zero
findings and re-ran the headless-Chromium behavior test (tooltip, per-tab
filter, global search navigation) — all green.

Help users quickly find settings and understand how each one works.
Tooltips: a new delegated controller (static/v3/js/tooltips.js) drives an
accessible (i) info tooltip that appears on hover, keyboard focus, and tap.
A shared `help_tip` Jinja macro (partials/_macros.html) emits the trigger;
the plugin config macro and the core settings partials now surface help
text through it. Per the design, the always-visible field help paragraphs
are folded into the tooltip to declutter the forms, and the hardware/display
settings carry authored detail (default, range, recommendation).
Search: a global header search box finds settings across every settings tab
— even ones not yet opened — via a lazy client-side index built by scanning
the same field markup (static/v3/js/settings-search.js). Selecting a result
switches tabs, waits for the field to load, then scrolls to and flashes it.
A per-tab filter box hides non-matching fields on the current tab.
Plugin settings get tooltips for free by reusing each field's schema
`description`; every settings field also gets a stable `setting-<tab>-<key>`
anchor id for search navigation.
Styling uses the existing --color-* theme vars so light/dark mode both work,
and honors prefers-reduced-motion. Adds Flask render smoke tests that assert
each settings partial ships tooltips, anchors, and a filter box.
