feat: design mode defaults on when jey_layout is installed

is_design_mode() now returns True automatically on machines where the jey_layout
editor app is installed (test/design machines), so site_config no longer needs
jey_design_mode. Production (jey_theme only) stays in always-enforce mode. An
explicit jey_design_mode in site_config still overrides (0/1).
