Gracefully handle the no-image decision page (#502)

* Gracefully handle the no-image decision page

Tested the new-work path without image generation and fixed what broke:

- A text-only card's back face (First viewport, The case) was unreachable:
  the Details flip chip only rendered inside the media block. Cards with no
  imagery now render their full read on the front and skip the back face.
- A hero/board that fails to load (retired catalog URL, offline shell) sat
  as a dark void with a zoom cursor. The slot now collapses to a field
  painted from the card's own palette with an "artwork unavailable" pill;
  broken inspiration PIPs remove themselves.
- Sketchless catalog art rendered unlabeled as the card's face, reading as
  the promise of the build. It now carries the same "inspiration" label and
  hover title the PIP uses.
- The --schema example pointed at catalog URLs that 404 (missing family
  prefix); updated to the real asset paths and noted the text-only front
  behavior in the schema prose.

Extends e2e test (e) with the front-read and label assertions and adds
test (f) for the broken-image fallback.

* fix: address PR review bot findings

- cursor[bot]: the unavailable-art scrim painted over the flip chips and
  swallowed their clicks; it now passes pointer events through and the
  chips render above it.
- Copilot: a palette-less card whose art failed still read as a dark void
  and kept the stale Inspiration tooltip; the slot now falls back to the
  graphite field in CSS and the tooltip is removed with the art.

Test (f) now covers both: a broken card with back facts must still flip
via Details, and a palette-less broken card gets the labeled fallback.
