Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Apply the 6px threshold to the buttons=0 pending release.

A pending press whose first move has buttons=0 finishes with finish(false) before the distance check. finish(false) does not suppress the click, so a release more than 6px from the press origin can still fire a click. A normal release after the same movement suppresses the click. The fix should release the press only within the threshold and cancel it otherwise, which matches the behavior before this change.

Review comment at @apps/web/src/components/Sidebar.pointer.ts at line 65:
Update the pending `buttons=0` path in the pointer handler to measure movement from the press origin against `this.props.options.distance`; call `finish(false)` within the threshold and `cancel()` when it is exceeded.
