Lighten the IMPECCABLE wordmark from weight 500 to 400

The lockup read a touch heavy. Drop the brand wordmark to 400 across the
header, footer, and the .ks-wordmark kit primitive so it stays consistent
everywhere. Alumni Sans was only loaded at 500/600/700, so 400 is added to
the font request (otherwise it would snap back to 500). DESIGN.md synced.
