/* EC-FORM-004: Native <select> option list styling.
 *
 * Why: EC-FORMS-004 / EC-MSTEP-001C converts Radix shadcn comboboxes to
 * native <select> elements so the form submits as a real HTML form. Native
 * select-popups inherit the trigger element background, so on shadcn forms
 * with translucent inputs (e.g. bg-white slash 10), the option list paints
 * as a translucent panel that bleeds the parent form background and makes
 * options nearly unreadable.
 *
 * The rule below paints each option on a solid surface using the same
 * shadcn --card design tokens the rest of the theme already uses, so
 * dropdowns visually match the original SelectContent / bg-popover render.
 *
 * Safety:
 *   - Scoped strictly to select option / select optgroup — never leaks
 *     to custom popover divs.
 *   - hsl(var(--card, ...)) with fallbacks degrades cleanly on themes
 *     that do not define the variable.
 *   - Safari ignores option styling entirely (no DOM hook into the native
 *     popup) so this is a no-op there. Chrome/Edge/Firefox/Brave honour it.
