[pyplot] Complete the live browser status, cursor, navigation, and event bridge

[Alek99]

Problem

A pyplot-compatible browser canvas must do more than display a static screenshot. Matplotlib examples rely on coordinate status text, cursor changes, navigation, resize/close semantics, picking, widgets, timers, and Python callbacks. Missing or incomplete event fields can render the initial chart while silently breaking interaction.

The standard gallery contract currently identifies 71 behavior-required examples. PR #413 adds the live XY canvas/manager bridge and fail-closed behavior evidence.

Acceptance

• mpl_connect and mpl_disconnect work through the browser canvas.
• Pointer, keyboard, scroll, resize, close, pick, and navigation events expose Matplotlib-compatible fields and coordinate transforms.
• Status text and cursor changes update from live browser events.
• Widgets, timers, draw, draw_idle, and full-redraw blit work without swallowed callback exceptions.
• All 71 behavior-required standard examples pass deterministic behavior gates with zero waivers.

Implemented in #413 and revalidated on exact head 99ee677ad05a506b9a4dd11385c708d411b6f43e.

CI run 30669491110 is green. The 71/71 standard behavior-required examples pass, and the full standard + extended behavior total is 76/76. The live Chromium coordinate-status, cursor, toolbar/navigation, event, widget, timer, draw/draw_idle, picking, resize, and close probes pass without swallowed callback errors or waivers.
