Adds `*, *::before, *::after { cursor: inherit }` after the html/body
cursor:default rules. This forces explicit inheritance at every element
level, which is the only reliable cross-browser fix (Chrome, Firefox,
Safari all differ in how cursor auto-resolution works on text content).
Restores cursor:pointer for links/buttons and cursor:text for inputs.
Browser UA stylesheet sets cursor:auto on <html>, causing I-beam cursor to
flash on text content in Firefox/Safari even with body{cursor:default}.
Adding cursor:default to the html{} block in both CSS files ensures the
root element has explicit arrow cursor everywhere.
