Consolidates the character creation TabContainer from 8 flat tabs
(Body / Head / Hair / Clothing / Accessories / Debug plus the two
being-added Skills / Bookmark) into 4 top-level tabs per Araminta's
revised spec: Bookmark, Appearance, Skills, Debug.
The existing five appearance sub-tabs (Body, Head, Hair, Clothing,
Accessories) now live inside the Appearance tab as a horizontal
segmented sub-navigation using the existing `_make_slot_btn()` pattern
— consistent with the Clothing/Accessories slot row vocabulary.
Selected sub-section uses existing ITEM_SELECTED_BG / BORDER styling.
Structural changes:
- New APPEARANCE_SUB_NAMES const lists the five sub-sections.
- Renamed _tab_search → _appearance_search, _tab_grids →
_appearance_grids. Scope changed from "top-level tabs" to
"Appearance sub-sections" but index 0..4 semantics preserved.
- Added _appearance_active_idx, _appearance_sub_btns,
_appearance_sub_sections state.
- _ready() builds exactly 4 top-level tabs; tab builders invoked
explicitly per index.
- New _build_bookmark_tab / _build_skills_tab render TEXT_DIM
placeholder labels ("Bookmark content lands in Workstream 6", etc.)
— actual content in W6/W8.
- _build_appearance_tab constructs the sub-nav strip and stacks all
5 sub-sections up front with visibility-toggle swap
(_on_appearance_sub_selected). Comment explains the up-front build
choice and the free-and-rebuild fallback if performance regresses.
- Existing _build_body_tab / _head / _hair / _clothing / _accessories /
_debug remain unchanged — they now receive Appearance sub-section
Controls as their tab argument instead of top-level tabs. _make_tab_vbox
anchors full-rect in both parent contexts, so layout is preserved.
Verification:
- gdlint clean
- godot --headless --path client --quit — no SCRIPT ERROR
- test_protocol 62/62, test_client_p3 24/24, test_ui_framework_sprint15
54/54, test_implant_nav_stack 52/52, test_implant_registry 42/42,
test_implant_app_lifecycle 36/36
Workstream 6 (Bookmark tab content: card list + detail view + location
picker per Araminta's spec) lands next. W7 (location picker as a
sub-component of Bookmark tab) follows. W8 (Skills stub content) is
last. Hoshe's parallel Task #21 (test hygiene triage) commits
separately.
