[interview] Restore persecution categories + fix CheckboxGroup reveal lag

- Re-added the persecution-grounds question (Political / Ethnic / Religious /
Gender-based / Sexual orientation / Climate displacement / Other) as a
multi-select, in addition to the free-text "what happened" narrative; options
translated into all 10 languages. Shown in the assessment facts + review.
- Fixed "options only appear after pressing Continue": each transition now
renders in two passes (question with controls hidden, then the control), which
makes the CheckboxGroup appear immediately.

64 fast tests pass.
