This PR changes the mode switcher from a custom JS thing to be a common selectbox, although heavily styled. The benefit is that you can click/hold the select box and release it on the option you want, making it easier to switch. It would also be more flexible if a plugin wanted to, say, add Markdown as an option.

This will need a review, especially the React bits.

We don't want to duplicate the source of truth from state. We'll simply want the render logic to use the prop directly. I'll plan to refactor this afternoon.

Also failing on this accessibility lint rule:

My linter actually caught this, but when I tested onBlur it wasn't an instant change whereas onChange was. Perhaps I was missing something.

Depending on what the lint rule is trying to suggest (in this case a less immediate feedback from toggling through options) we may consider simply bypassing or removing the rule altogether, or applying both an onChange and onBlur.

For now I've disabled the rule with reasoning left inline. I'll plan to create a separate "Accessibility Review" issue to discuss the case, as onBlur handling is at odds with a select which has immediate effect (unless we also wanted a confirm action).

No linting to capture it, but we ought to be cautious of mixed spacing in SCSS files.

Just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate this and very much taking notes. Thanks for pushing fixes too.
