The workout builder's "add exercise" dropdown was Exercise::orderBy
('name')->limit(50) with no search. Harmless with a handful of seeded
exercises, but once the library is populated with real data (1000+),
users could only ever add exercises starting around A-D - the core
"build a workout" flow would be effectively broken.
Replaces it with a debounced Alpine.js combobox backed by a new
GET /workouts/{workout}/exercises/search endpoint (owner-only, JSON,
capped at 20 results, respects each user's custom exercise aliases).
