fix(sidebar): the scrollbar sits at the edge, thin and dim

It sat a pad-width inside the right edge because the scroller lives inside the
sidebar's padding, so it read as floating in the middle. Pull the scroller out
to the border and pad the content back — the rows do not move — and make the
bar thin and dim so it is present without drawing the eye.
