fix: show one image spread across the hero monitors - #119

Conversation
The New Wallpaper hero and the wizard illustration now draw one photograph across their monitor panels, each panel clipped to its own part of it, with the scene continuing behind the gaps. Closes #118
The credit line now uses cdTextSecondary, which clears WCAG AA over the hero's tinted backdrop, and fades out for the kinds that do not draw the photograph. Drops the two accent tokens whose last uses went with the old wizard rectangles, hides the illustration from VoiceOver, and documents the remaining stored properties.

The New Wallpaper hero and the first-run wizard now draw one photograph across their monitor panels instead of a full copy of the same artwork on each.

The hero is the app's pitch, and it was advertising three separate wallpapers on three monitors, which is exactly what SpreadPaper replaces.
