feat(tuxedo): Apple-quality motion choreography

Adds four new motion primitives in src/components/ui/ScrollAnimations.tsx
and wires them into the hero, PullQuoteBand, TheCorn, FounderStrip,
HarvestEditorial. Existing FadeOnScroll/ScrollReveal/ParallaxLayer are
left untouched so other pages (and the rest of Tuxedo) keep their
current vestibular-safe motion.

New primitives (all reduced-motion safe):
  AppleReveal       opacity 0→1 + Y 18→0 + blur(6px)→0
                    power3.out (≈ cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1))
                    0.55s primary, 0.4s secondary, fires at 'top 88%'
                    one-shot toggleActions, supports immediate mount
  AppleStagger      wraps a set of [data-apple-stagger] children, fires
                    them with 0.06s stagger; ideal for editorial cascade
                    (eyebrow → h2 → rule → lede → supporting copy)
  AppleStickySection pins the first child to the top while siblings
                    scroll past; adds 6% scroll-linked yPercent drift for
                    depth. PullQuoteBand now uses this for the pre-storm
                    field photograph.
  AppleCountUp      refined count-up: power3.out, 1.6s. Replaces the
                    HarvestEditorial 2s linear-feeling counters.

Hero upgrades:
  - Title split into <span class='hero-word'> so each word cascades
    in with its own blur-up; logo → eyebrow → rule → lede → CTAs →
    stats get the block-level Apple reveal with 0.08s stagger.
  - Scroll-fade holds through the FULL hero scroll length
    (start top top, end bottom top, scrub 0.6) instead of fading by
    40% which made the type disappear before users finished reading.
  - Scroll-indicator fade uses scrub 0.5 (was 1.0) so it's physically
    tied to the scrollbar.
  - Logo uses plain div (was framer-motion); the GSAP pass animates
    all hero-reveal elements with a single consistent curve.

Editorial sections unified:
  TheCorn, FounderStrip, HarvestEditorial headers now use AppleStagger
  for their eyebrow → headline → rule → lede cascades. The harvest
  data strip uses AppleCountUp.

Also brings 'Upcoming Stops' into the magazine type system:
  font-display + clamp() H2, tracking-[0.32em] eyebrow, leading-[1.65]
  body — matches TheCorn/HarvestEditorial instead of the raw
  text-3xl/font-black treatment.

                 Olathe Sweet was developed for the Uncompahgre Valley — five thousand,
                 three hundred and sixty feet above the sea, where the daytime sun hits
                 the husk and the nights cool it back down before sunrise. That diurnal
                 swing is what loads every kernel with sugar; nothing we do in the
                 kitchen can replicate it, and nothing in a greenhouse can grow it.
