…ed design

Content:
- New 9-step flow: Welcome, Mission, How It Works, Get Involved,
  Using the Site, Slack Tutorial, Introduce Yourself, FAQs, Feedback
- New HowItWorksSection: nonprofit problem -> projects -> hackathon ->
  judging -> winners continue ~3 months -> Definition of Done ->
  production/maintenance, with the project-status ladder
- New RolesSection: hacker/mentor/judge/volunteer/nonprofit role cards
  with time commitments and how to apply; keeps mentor + judge videos
- New WebsiteTourSection: first-steps guide, site map, and a public-
  portfolio band (GitHub Issues = public credit; no issues in a repo ->
  pull the code and write tickets like a PM; Slack/demos/profile/praise
  round out what recruiters can review)
- FAQ corrections: no project leads, no commenting on projects, no buddy
  system; joining a project = "Want to help?" toggle + project Slack
  channel + GitHub repo + next hackathon; answers now match
  /about/process and /about/completion
- Slack step reorganized: two-account gotcha first (ohack.dev login does
  not create a Slack account -> /signup guide), real channel deep links
  (#introductions, #ask-a-mentor, #random, #npo-* per project)
- Praise board called out for social proof on Welcome + portfolio band
- Removed unused BuddySystem component and all buddy-system claims

Design:
- Scoped onboardingTheme ThemeProvider: Fraunces headings, Hanken body,
  navy/terracotta palette, flat hairline surfaces (no elevation shadows)
- Shared StepHeader across all steps (renders h2; masthead owns the h1)
- Calmed hover-lift cards and rainbow chips per the refined system

Feedback plumbing:
- topicOptions mirror the new steps; admin USEFUL_TOPICS keeps legacy
  "Buddy System" so old responses still chart

The 9-step Stepper overflowed a 375px viewport with no way to reach
steps 7-9. The stepper card now scrolls horizontally on narrow screens
(minWidth 720 below md) and an effect keeps the active step scrolled
into view as the user advances.
