Replace invisible SVG patterns with real leaf texture images:
- leaves-green.png: transparent monstera/fern/vine pattern for
light sections (Projects)
- leaves-gold.png: gold botanical line art on black for dark
sections (Design Science Studio)

- 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
