Mobile Selection UI Overhaul

On desktop, selecting a passage works well: click a verse, drag to the last one, and everything in between highlights. On a phone or tablet, there is no drag — there's only tapping and scrolling, and the two kept getting confused with each other. Readers on touch devices had no reliable way to select a verse or passage at all.

A selection experience built specifically for touch, not adapted from the desktop version:

Long-press to start selecting
Holding a finger on any verse for a moment now opens selection mode — the same gesture people already use to select text elsewhere on their phone.

Checkboxes for adding more verses
Once selection mode is open, a checkbox appears beside each verse. Checking a verse above or below the current selection automatically fills in everything between, so building a passage still feels like one continuous selection, not a list of disconnected taps.

A dedicated mobile selection bar
A share button and a clear "Done" control appear in a bar pinned to the top of the screen for the duration of selection — visible no matter how far the reader has scrolled, and the one intentional way to exit selection mode.

A lighter, theme-aware highlight
Selected verses now use a subtle, semi-transparent highlight rather than a solid block of color — easier to read the verse text underneath, and it looks correct whether the reader has the plugin's light or dark appearance turned on.
