Add player rail, dice overlay, and compact card support

This update introduces a player rail to the right of the board, visually representing active and inactive players, and adds a dice overlay beneath the board. Compact variants for placeholder cards were added, with corresponding adjustments to layouts and styles for better responsiveness and a cleaner interface.
