Add keyboard controls for scene reordering.

When custom order is enabled, render focusable Move up and Move down buttons for each scene with accessible names and disabled boundary states. Keep drag-and-drop for pointer input.

Not changed, on purpose.

Keyboard reordering controls would be a genuine improvement, but they are a new UI affordance rather than a fix to this PR: this list is a copy of the DeviceListWithDragAndDrop pattern the devices widget has used for years, with the same drag handle and the same lack of keyboard controls. Adding Move up / Move down buttons to the scene list only would leave the two widgets inconsistent, and doing it in both is a change of its own — with its own translation keys and styles — well beyond "let the scenes be ordered".

Worth opening as a separate accessibility issue covering both drag & drop lists.

@Pierre-Gilles, agreed. The keyboard reordering gap affects both SceneListWithDragAndDrop and DeviceListWithDragAndDrop. Changing only the new scene list would make the widget interactions inconsistent.

This PR can keep the established drag-and-drop pattern. A separate accessibility issue should cover keyboard reordering, shared interaction behavior, translations, and styles for both lists.

Would you like me to open that follow-up issue?

Learning: In Gladys dashboard widgets, `front/src/components/drag-and-drop/SceneListWithDragAndDrop.jsx` intentionally follows the established `DeviceListWithDragAndDrop` drag-and-drop interaction pattern. Keyboard reordering is an accessibility enhancement that should be designed consistently for both lists in a separate change, including any required translations and styles.

Timestamp: 2026-08-10T18:26:45.915Z
Learning: In `front/src/routes/scene/edit-scene/actions/ConditionWhile.jsx`, the Repeat header uses a focusable `<div>` with `role="button"`, `tabIndex="0"`, `aria-expanded={!repeatCollapsed}`, and `ConditionWhile.handleRepeatKeyDown`. The handler toggles the section on Enter and Space, with `preventDefault()` for Space.
