Jeff Emmett 89b0bf09c7 Fix leaf patterns: boost opacity, simplify, apply sparingly
- Dramatically increased opacity (0.08 default, 0.12 dark) and
  fill-opacity within SVGs (0.3-0.6) so patterns are visible
- Simplified SVGs with bolder strokes and fills
- Applied only to Projects (green leaves on sand) and DSS
  (gold leaves on dark green) for a sparse, tasteful effect
- Removed from Film & TV, OTB, and Contact sections

Jeff Emmett 839f7a9969 Replace leaf patterns with detailed botanical SVGs

monstera leaves with veins, fern fronds with paired leaflets,
trailing vines with small leaves, eucalyptus branches, fiddle
leaves, and scattered seed berries. Each variant (default, light,
dark) has distinct plant forms at higher detail.
