HEADER V2 - TEST STYLES
Two genuinely separate, independent full-width sections:
1. .header-v2__topbar - the top utility bar (always visible)
2. .header-v2__mainbar - logo + hamburger + main nav
Kept as plain top-level siblings rather than nested inside one shared
wrapper - that's what makes the spacing/padding behave predictably at
every breakpoint, instead of fighting negative margins to cancel out
a parent's padding.
Everything scoped under #nav-area-v2 / .header-v2 so nothing here
touches or clashes with the live #nav-area rules in site.min.css / dave.css.

the mainbar any real room to stick - it would immediately un-stick
