Native thermal printing via iframe — 80mm, RTL, no blank tail

Problem: window.print() on the main page used A4 height (blank paper
after receipt), no RTL direction, and Tailwind styles leaked into print.

Solution — iframe isolation:
- lib/thermal-print.ts: builds a self-contained HTML document
  (@page { size: 80mm auto; margin: 0 }, html { direction: rtl })
  and fires it through a hidden off-screen <iframe>. The iframe
  document contains only the receipt so height == content height.
- pos-slip-modal.tsx: Print button calls printThermal(buildThermalDocument())
  instead of window.print(). Preview panel is unchanged (screen only).
- pos-receipt-print.css: updated @page + direction as fallback for any
  remaining window.print() callers.

Works with USB driver (Atom A300) as default printer — OS print spooler
receives the job exactly as if it were any other document.
