Subject: [PATCH] style(watcher): reorder sections by operator timeline
 (campaigns before board)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Final order: Workers / Active (Present) → Recent (Past) → Campaigns /
Board / Queue (Future) → Global Rate / Backend Limits (Capacity) →
Services (Infra) → System Resources / Global Gate (bottom-anchored).

Campaigns are higher-level workstreams (multi-task), so they read
naturally before Board (per-task plane state). Board feeds Queue.
