feat(site): original device art + amazing polish pass

Adds original OpenScribe illustrations and elevates the whole site from a plain
scaffold to a polished, animated product site.

What changed:
- assets/img/: original SVG artwork (CC-BY-SA, no third-party photos):
  - openscribe-wearable.svg - the wearable recorder with a breathing status LED (SMIL
    animation that plays even when embedded via <img>).
  - openscribe-kit.svg - the dev/kit build: ESP32-S3 board + I2S mic + microSD + LiPo,
    with amber trace connectors.
  - favicon.svg - the "12" studio mark; wired as the site icon and header logo.
- index.html: two-column hero with the floating device, a trust strip, a featured
  showcase (device image + sync diagram), project cards with device thumbnails, and a
  new "why open beats a locked box" comparison table (our own words, no competitor art).
- projects/openscribe.html: device hero, the AI picker in a proper panel, and a new
  "two ways to build it" section with product figures (wearable + kit) and descriptions.
- assets/styles.css: full theme refresh - atmospheric background, gradient headings,
  hero float, hover lift + shadows, product/figure styles, comparison table, and
  scroll-reveal transitions (honours prefers-reduced-motion).
- assets/app.js: IntersectionObserver scroll reveals alongside the provider picker.
- README: documents the artwork and that it is original/publishable.

Why:
- The user asked for product images with descriptions, then to "make it amazing" - this
  delivers IP-safe original device imagery and a genuinely polished, animated site.

Notes:
- Still zero dependencies and no build step. Validated: app.js passes node --check, all
  SVGs are valid XML, HTML section tags balanced, every local link/asset resolves.

<h2>Bring your own AI</h2>
<p class="section-sub">This is the difference. A commercial recorder locks you to its cloud.
OpenScribe lets you point transcription and summaries at whatever you want - a local model,
an open-standard endpoint, or a commercial API. Pick one and drop it in your server config:</p>
<div id="provider-picker" class="picker" aria-label="Choose an AI provider"></div>
<pre class="code"><code id="env-out"></code></pre>
<p class="section-sub">Transcription is just as flexible: local <code>faster-whisper</code>, or
any OpenAI-compatible audio endpoint (OpenAI, Groq, or your own whisper server).</p>
