feat(timeline): make it a board, with the axis and the names pinned

The reader who was asked what good looks like named paimon.moe's timeline,
and the thing ours was missing is what that view never loses: on a wide
window we drew more calendar and nothing that said which day, whose game, or
which event was on screen. The date axis, the lane names and the event names
all scrolled away together — and a six-week bar starts weeks off the left
edge, so its name went with its start date and left a coloured rectangle.

So it is a pane that scrolls in both directions, with the axis stuck to the
top and every name stuck to the left. A name is sticky inside its own bar, so
it can never wander onto an event it does not belong to. The axis gained the
week the schedules are actually written in: a dated tick every Monday and a
brighter rule at each month.

The frozen label column that started this went away again — it stood on the
calendar and ate the names it was meant to keep. Lane names sit on their own
line instead, and "jump to today" sits in the board's header rather than
floating over the dates it sends you back to.

So the outstanding work is the colophon roadmap, P0's build assertion, and a reshoot of the promo
screenshot. P1b is closed. The colour pass is open in name only: the palette was examined and left
alone with the reasoning above, so what is left of P2 is the screenshot, which is now worth taking
from a wide window.

**F1 — Calendar view (default).**
**F1 — Timeline view.**
A horizontal timeline, one lane per game, spanning a scrollable date range with "today" pinned as a
vertical marker. Each event is a bar from `startsAt` to `endsAt`. Bars are colored by game, and
completed events render at reduced opacity with a check. Clicking a bar opens a detail panel with

An event with `endsAt: null` renders as a bar with a frayed right edge and the label "end date
unknown" — it must be visually distinct from an event that ends far in the future.
It is a board rather than a stretch of page: its own pane, scrolling in both directions, with the
date axis pinned to the top and every name — the lane's and the event's — pinned to the left edge.
Those three used to scroll away together, which made a wide window worse rather than better: more
calendar on screen, and nothing left saying which day, whose game, or which event was being read. A
six-week bar starts weeks off-screen, so a name that rides off with its own start date leaves a
coloured rectangle behind.
**F2 — Ends-soonest list.**
A flat list of all *currently running* events sorted ascending by end date, with a relative
countdown ("ends in 2 days", "ends in 4 hours"). Under 24 hours, the row is emphasized. This is the
view that justifies the app, and it is one tap from the timeline.
**The list is capped and offers the rest.** Two games already run to twenty-one live events, and a
reader who tried exactly that said the list stopped being usable. Each section shows a handful with
an explicit "show all N". This truncates the *view* only: the order is untouched, and the rows below
the cut are still counted in the header, still on the timeline, and one tap away.
**Which view opens is the reader's answer, not ours.** This spec said "calendar (default)" and the
app shipped opening on the list; both were a decision made on the reader's behalf and then forgotten
on every reload. So the first run asks (F8) and the answer is stored in `prefs.view`. The list is
what the question ships pre-answered with — a reader cannot choose between two layouts they have not
seen, and it is the view that answers "what expires next" in one look.

**F3 — Mark completed.**
A toggle on every event, in both views. State is written to `localStorage` immediately and
optimistically — there is no server round trip and no failure case. Completed events stay visible
