docs(vt): document that plain <menu> style covers the open popup too

Browse source 
Follow-up to the UiMenu popup fix: the existing "menu style" paragraph in
plugin-ui-markup.md only described the closed-state button face swap from
the earlier S7 fix. Extend it to say the plain style now covers the whole
menu (closed AND open) — flat popup chrome matching <list>, a lighter hover
fill, no checkmark, and a plain scrollbar past the row cap — so a plugin
author reading the doc doesn't assume style="plain" only affects the
closed face.

OPEN popup still drew retail's tan/orange gradient panel, its ornate gold

`style="plain"`. The open popup now matches `<list>`'s own chrome too: a
flat fill + 1px border, one row per entry in the list text color, the
current entry filled like a list selection, the hovered entry a slightly
lighter fill, and no checkmark; more entries than the row cap show a plain
1px-bordered scrollbar track with a flat thumb, no DAT scrollbar art.
`style="retail"` keeps the sprite popup (gradient panel, checkmark-bearing
row art, ornate scrollbar) exactly as before, unchanged.
