fix: add bg-gray-50 back to Layout

The 'Today' stat card now adds the running timer's elapsed seconds to
the total, so the displayed duration ticks up live alongside the timer
widget. The timer is only counted when it started today (timers carried
over from the previous day are excluded).

A pulsing green indicator dot is shown on the stat card value while the
timer is active, consistent with the balance widget treatment. The dot
is implemented via a new optional 'indicator' prop on StatCard so it
can be reused elsewhere without changing existing call sites.
