+ * Page-wide OS drag/drop guard.

+ * `/search` has no upload path, but without capturing the drop the
+ * browser's default handler navigates to the dropped file — the tab
+ * REPLACES the app with the file itself, which is data-loss-esque
+ * (user loses their in-progress search + any unsaved UI state).
+ * The `ResourceList`-based views (`/photos`, `/shared`, `/trash`, …)
+ * already fire a "wrong drop zone" toast via their `.rl-root`
+ * wrapper when `enableSystemDrop` is false — this handler brings
+ * `/search` to the same contract, and covers the whole viewport
+ * (not just a list surface) so drops on the sticky header /
+ * result-card margins are caught too. Same toast copy + "Go to
+ * Files" action as `ResourceList` for a consistent recovery UX.
