Context: Owner: list tables are squashed — cells compressed instead of scrolling.
Tasks:
1. Tables keep natural width: `width:max-content; min-width:100%` inside `.table-scroll` (overflow-x:auto). Cells `white-space:nowrap` EXCEPT title cells (`overflow-wrap:anywhere`, min-width floor e.g. 12rem) so rows scroll horizontally instead of squashing. Apply to issues/pulls/commits/tasks/ci/releases tables — audit all.
2. Sticky first column? NO (tiny). Row hover tint yes (var).
3. Tests: CSS asserts (max-content, nowrap rules), fixture with 200-char title + long sha asserts title cell class + wrapper present.
Swarm: pair with #31 (same templates). Branch `m6/table-scroll`.
