console: lift the type scale — body 14, values 15, so hierarchy shows

An audit found 124 of ~200 sizings at 12-13px: the 13px "meta" tier had become
the de-facto body size (97 uses), so the app read tiny and uniform with nothing
for the eye to land on, and the upper scale was starved. Shifted the crowded
lower tiers up one notch — dominant text 13->14, field labels 14->15, values
15->16, emphasis 16->17. One change to the scale definitions, lifting every
surface at once; 12px stays reserved for uppercase eyebrows.
