   About page — credential-ledger design (OD: templates/about.html, 2026-09-21).
   Scoped under `.about-lp` (the content root group, alignfull); enqueued by
   tpl-book.php as the about page's per-slug skin. Tokens inherit from
   style.css §01. Section scaffolding included: .about-section__inner owns
   the inner content width; the root group is full-bleed.
