P3 Badge Preserve right alignment in noscript header

In the noscript header (app/views/application/_header.html.erb lines 3–18), .panel sits inside a .row, and .row is still the Bootstrap float-based grid (app/assets/stylesheets/vendor/bootstrap.scss lines 25–38), not a flex container. After removing float: right here, the login panel will no longer align to the right and will stack below the title when JavaScript is disabled (the <noscript> path). Keeping the float for that markup or making .row a flex container would avoid the regression in no-JS environments.
