* feat(web): overhaul SEO structure and landing pages
Add distro-specific install pages and an engine comparison hub to capture high-intent organic queries. Centralize metadata and structured data handling to improve crawl consistency, internal linking, and rich-result eligibility.
* feat(web): add subpage navigation and visual polish
Make SEO landing pages easier to discover and navigate by adding persistent subpage header/footer links to home and key routes. Refresh install and comparison pages with colorful icon-driven sections while expanding homepage footer links for stronger internal linking.
* fix(ci): make web version sync robust to schema location
CI assumed softwareVersion lived in layout.tsx, but SEO refactors moved SoftwareApplication JSON-LD to page.tsx. Update workflow sync steps to patch whichever file currently contains softwareVersion so website build and release jobs keep working.
* chore(web): remove SEO audit artifact
Drop the internal SEO audit markdown from the PR so only production website and workflow changes are included.
Swap the website Open Graph image with the provided design and regenerate both PNG and WebP assets at the standard 1200x630 share size so previews render consistently across platforms.

* feat(web): Add live demo, improve logo and install UX
Changes:
- Use actual app logo SVG image for consistent branding
- Added live browser-based speech recognition demo using Web Speech API

- Clear indication that the demo uses cloud-based Web Speech API

LiveDemo now handles double-tap Ctrl detection internally.
