website: clean up liveline page, fix dark mode, add OG tags

- Remove 5 ChartPlaceholder stubs that were never replaced with real content
- Add OG meta tags (title, description, og:image 1280x800, twitter:card
  summary_large_image) for rich previews on X, Slack, Discord
- Rename PropsTable to ComparisonTable with configurable headers prop,
  fixing the hardcoded 'Prop/Type/Default' headers on comparison tables
- Remove stale Antigravity/Jetski comparison section
- Switch dark mode from .dark class toggle to prefers-color-scheme media
  query via Tailwind @custom-variant. Remove inline JS script from root.tsx,
  update all .dark selectors in liveline.css, liveline-prism.css to use
  @variant dark from globals.css so strategy is defined in one place
- Fix scrollbar colors: light gray on light backgrounds, subtle white on
  dark backgrounds (was using --color-muted which was invisible in both)
- Update remote access section with traforo link, VPN/firewall context,
  MCP env var docs, and more use cases from docs/remote-access.md
