Image counterpart to #48, which moved the CSS accent to #d98a45.

Asset Was Now
docs/assets/favicon.ico #a39259 #da8b46
docs/assets/logo.png #c0995e #d98a45
docs/assets/logo-icon.png #a39259 #da8b46

Notes

The favicon was byte-identical to the website's copy (same SHA-256), so the already-recolored file is copied across rather than run through the conversion a second time. Two independent conversions would drift apart; this keeps them identical.

logo.png is two flat colors plus antialiasing. Every pixel is projected onto the gold-to-gray axis, the gold endpoint swapped, and the residual added back — both endpoints map exactly and all blend shades survive without edge fringing.

logo-icon.png carries the duller #a39259 gold on a dark ground, so it gets the same saturation-gated HLS remap as the favicon: neutral background and lettering pass through untouched.

Unrelated to this PR

The navbar brand icon in overrides/main.html is <img src="https://comp-physics.group/favicon.ico"> — an absolute production URL. It picks up the new color from the website deploy, not from this repo, so nothing here needs to change for it.

mkdocs build --strict passes.

Matches the CSS accent change in #48.
