docs: scale banner to fill GitHub 838×279px display 
Measured actual GitHub display: 838×279px at 1365px viewport.
Previous content (mark=216px, wordmark=132px) rendered at 83px/51px —
too small for the available space.

New target sizes calibrated to display dimensions:
  mark       216 → 285px target  →  110px at 838px display  (+32%)
  wordmark   132 → 170px target  →   55px height at display  (+35%)
  tagline     62 →  78px target  →   30px at display         (+26%)
  A in mark  160 → 210px target

Reduced inter-element gaps to keep content within 724px height;
fills ~84% of banner, leaving ~23px display margin each side.

docs: scale up banner content for GitHub display size 
At GitHub's ~840px README width, 2172×724 renders at 840×280px.
Previous element sizes (mark 130px, wordmark 80px) became 50px and 31px
at display — too small to read clearly.

Scale everything ~1.65× to fill ~80% of banner height:
  mark       130 → 216px at target  (≈ 83px at 840px display)
  wordmark    80 → 132px at target  (≈ 51px at display)
  tagline     38 →  62px at target  (≈ 24px at display)
  A in mark   96 → 160px at target

Proportional gap increases maintain the same visual rhythm.

docs: redesign banners — logo mark, flat bg, no chrome artifacts 
Previous version had three inelegancies visible on GitHub:
- Full-width ghost rule read as an artifact dividing the banner in half
- Top terracotta bar looked like site header chrome
- Radial gradient created compression banding at CDN quality

v5 design:
- Terracotta rounded-rect logo mark (130px) with Paper 'A' inside —
  the actual brand element per the style guide, not a floating letter
- Flat Shell / Paper background — compresses losslessly, zero banding
- No top bar, no ghost rule, no gradient gimmicks
- Same crisp Cormorant Garamond SemiBold + 2x supersample + Lanczos
- Both dark and light variants updated with identical layout

docs: redesign banners with Cormorant Garamond + 2x supersample 
Dark banner:
- Replace Georgia with Cormorant Garamond SemiBold (actual brand font)
- 2x supersample render → Lanczos downsample for crisp edges at all
  display densities
- Shell (#141d18) background with layered radial warmth
- Editorial stacked colophon layout: large 'A' / thin parchment rule /
  wide-tracked wordmark / amber italic tagline
- Ghost full-width hairline rule anchors the horizontal composition
- Terracotta dash ornaments flank the tagline (composited on separate
  RGBA layer for correct alpha blending)

Light banner (new PNG, replacing SVG):
- Same font, supersample, and layout
- Paper (#f5f0e7) background with subtle warm edge shadow
- Ink wordmark, Muted tagline — all brand palette

README: switch light-mode fallback from banner-light.svg to banner-light.png

docs: redesign dark banner — editorial colophon layout 
Replace app-icon-style horizontal lockup with centered stacked
composition: large standalone terracotta 'A' mark → thin parchment
rule → wide-tracked cream wordmark → amber italic tagline.

Edge-darkening vignette clears the center and frames the bokeh
atmosphere without muddying the text zone.
