Merge pull request 'fix(canvas): guard querySelectorAll in ThemeToggle handleKeyDown' (#1001 ) from fix/2088-themetoggle-queryselectorall-errors into main

fix(canvas): guard querySelectorAll in ThemeToggle handleKeyDown
querySelectorAll throws INDEX_SIZE_ERR in jsdom when the child-combinator selector is evaluated in certain DOM attachment states. Wrap in try-catch with fallback selector to restore the 5 errors (0 failures) in ThemeToggle.test.tsx. Tests: 208 files, 3245 passed, 0 errors.
