Update toc.js

feat(toc): improve footer collision handling and initial render

- implement transform-based footer collision (no layout shift)
- add dynamic trigger offset for smoother early interaction
- introduce soft easing for natural TOC push-back
- fix initial TOC visibility with requestAnimationFrame
- ensure stable positioning without top/position overrides

Result: smooth, flicker-free TOC behavior with proper footer boundary handling
