feat(admin): complete Task 7 Phase 2 - styling rollout

Extended the theming system to additional pages and components, continuing
to eliminate hardcoded colors and duplicated styles.

**Pages Refactored:**
- /admin/media - Integrated EmptyState with action button (~20 lines removed)
- /admin/albums - Integrated EmptyState & ErrorMessage (~25 lines removed)
  - Fixed hardcoded spacing in loading spinner (32px → calc($unit * 4))
  - Replaced hardcoded error color (#d33 → $error-text)

**Components Updated with Semantic Colors:**
- Button.svelte - Replaced 3 instances of #dc2626 → $error-text
- AlbumSelector.svelte - Error message uses $error-bg, $error-text
- AlbumSelectorModal.svelte - Error message uses $error-bg, $error-text, $error-border
  - Fixed border width (1px → $unit-1px)

**Phase 2 Results:**
- Total lines removed: ~105 across 4 pages (Phase 1: 60, Phase 2: 45)
- EmptyState component now used in 4 pages
- ErrorMessage component now used in 3 pages
- Standardized error colors across 3 modal components

**Theming Benefits:**
- Error styling centralized (change $error-bg once, updates everywhere)
- Empty states guaranteed visual consistency
- Dark mode ready (just remap CSS variables in themes.scss)

**Remaining work (future):**
- ~30 files with remaining hardcoded colors
- ~15 files with spacing that could use $unit system
- Opportunity for additional semantic variables as needed

+## Phase 2: Rollout (Complete ✅)
+
+**Completed:** Oct 8, 2025
+
+### Additional Pages Refactored
+
+**Media Page** (`/admin/media`):
+- ✅ Integrated `EmptyState` with action button
+- ✅ Replaced hardcoded error color (`#d33` → `$error-text`)
+- Removed ~20 lines of duplicate empty-state styles
+
+**Albums Page** (`/admin/albums`):
+- ✅ Integrated `EmptyState` component
+- ✅ Integrated `ErrorMessage` component
+- ✅ Fixed hardcoded spacing in loading spinner (32px → `calc($unit * 4)`)
+- Removed ~25 lines of duplicate error/empty-state styles
+
+### Components Updated with Semantic Colors
+
+**Button.svelte:**
+- ✅ Replaced 3 instances of `#dc2626` → `$error-text` in `.btn-danger-text` variant
+
+**AlbumSelector.svelte:**
+- ✅ `.error-message`: `rgba(239, 68, 68, 0.1)` → `$error-bg`
+- ✅ `.error-message`: `#dc2626` → `$error-text`
