Use a photographic golden-hour slider as the README hero

Replace the age-portrait audit sheet with a rendered three-frame hero: a
custom "golden-hour light" slider grading the same coastal photograph from
cool overcast (-3) through the untouched prompt (0) to warm golden hour
(+6), on one prompt and seed with the composition held. More photographic
and clearer than the old hero, and it doubles as a custom-poles example.

The sheet above is from the ten-slider render audit (fixed seed, one render
per dial position): eight of ten user-defined sliders worked as desired and
two worked after pole rewording, with no image degradation at full
deflection. Results, all ten sheets, and a slider-writing cookbook - what
makes a strong axis, how to fix a weak direction - are in the
[Concept Slider guide](docs/concept-slider-v1.md).
Above is one custom slider - a `golden-hour light` axis spelled out with two
pole phrases - on a single coastal prompt at a fixed seed. Only the dial
value changes between frames: it grades the light from cool overcast down at
`-3`, through your untouched prompt at `0`, to full golden hour at `+6`,
while the cliff, shoreline, and framing hold. It is one of ten sliders in
the render audit (eight worked as desired, two after pole rewording, no
degradation at full deflection). Results, all ten audit sheets, and a
slider-writing cookbook - what makes a strong axis, how to fix a weak
direction - are in the [Concept Slider guide](docs/concept-slider-v1.md).

for six sliders, the report, and a same-seed with-vs-without branch in one
graph.
