dashboard: how hard links pull, on a dynamic map
On a dynamic map, links pull toward their lengths against the nodes
pushing each other apart, at one strength. A `pull` slider before the
layout's toggle, shown while dynamic, sets it from a quarter to four
times as hard (2 to its value, once at first), kept in the browser;
the map moves to the new balance smoothly.
