fix(cuesheet): restore keyboard focus flow for lazy text cells

The lazy editor (Exp A) unmounts on exit, so the editor's own deferred
focus-return (useReactiveTextInput) targeted a detached node and focus was
lost to <body>, breaking table keyboard navigation after submit/escape.

Return focus to the parent cell deterministically in a layout effect once the
display element is back in the DOM (rather than a setTimeout that races the
next keypress), mirroring the time/duration cells.

Update the e2e tests to the lazy interaction model (click the cell to open the
on-demand editor, assert it unmounts on exit) — matching the existing timer
cell test. Verified end-to-end: 202-cuesheet (3/3) and 206-url-preset (5/5).
