* fix(brief): switch carousel to @vercel/og on edge runtime

Every attempt to ship the Phase 8 Telegram carousel on Vercel's
Node serverless runtime has failed at cold start:

- PR #3174 direct satori + @resvg/resvg-wasm: Vercel edge bundler
  refused the `?url` asset import required by resvg-wasm.
- PR #3174 (fix) direct satori + @resvg/resvg-js native binding:
  Node runtime accepted it, but Vercel's nft tracer does not follow
  @resvg/resvg-js/js-binding.js's conditional
  `require('@resvg/resvg-js-<platform>-<arch>-<libc>')` pattern,
  so the linux-x64-gnu peer package was never bundled. Cold start
  threw MODULE_NOT_FOUND, isolate crashed,
  FUNCTION_INVOCATION_FAILED on every request including OPTIONS,
  and Telegram reported WEBPAGE_CURL_FAILED with no other signal.
- PR #3204 added `vercel.json` `functions.includeFiles` to force
  the binding in, but (a) the initial key was a literal path that
  Vercel micromatch read as a character class (PR #3206 fixed),
  (b) even with the corrected `api/brief/carousel/**` wildcard, the
  function still 500'd across the board. The `functions.includeFiles`
  path appears honored in the deployment manifest but not at runtime
  for this particular native-binding pattern.

Fix: swap the renderer to @vercel/og's ImageResponse, which is
Vercel's first-party wrapper around satori + resvg-wasm with
Vercel-native bundling. Runs on Edge runtime — matches every other
API route in the project. No native binding, no includeFiles, no
nft tracing surprises. Cold start ~300ms, warm ~30ms.

Changes:
- server/_shared/brief-carousel-render.ts: replace renderCarouselPng
  (Uint8Array) with renderCarouselImageResponse (ImageResponse).
  Drop ensureLibs + satori + @resvg/resvg-js dynamic-import dance.
  Keep layout builders (buildCover/buildThreads/buildStory) and
  font loading unchanged — the Satori object trees are
  wire-compatible with ImageResponse.
- api/brief/carousel/[userId]/[issueDate]/[page].ts: flip
  `runtime: 'nodejs'` -> `runtime: 'edge'`. Delegate rendering to
  the renderer's ImageResponse and return it directly; error path
  still 503 no-store so CDN + Telegram don't pin a bad render.
- vercel.json: drop the now-useless `functions.includeFiles` block.
- package.json: drop direct `@resvg/resvg-js` and `satori` deps
  (both now bundled inside @vercel/og).
- tests/deploy-config.test.mjs: replace the native-binding
  regression guards with an assertion that no `functions` block
  exists (with a comment pointing at the skill documenting the
  micromatch gotcha for future routes).
- tests/brief-carousel.test.mjs: updated comment references.

Verified:
- typecheck + typecheck:api clean
- test:data 5814/5814 pass
- node -e test: @vercel/og imports cleanly in Node (tests that
  reach through the renderer file no longer depend on native
  bindings)

Post-deploy validation:
  curl -I -H "User-Agent: TelegramBot (like TwitterBot)" \
    "https://www.worldmonitor.app/api/brief/carousel/<uid>/<slot>/0"
  # Expect: HTTP/2 403 (no token) or 200 (valid token)
  # NOT:    HTTP/2 500 FUNCTION_INVOCATION_FAILED

Then tail Railway digest logs on the next tick; the
`[digest] Telegram carousel 400 ... WEBPAGE_CURL_FAILED` line
should stop appearing, and the 3-image preview should actually land
on Telegram.

* Add renderer smoke test + fix Cache-Control duplication

Reviewer flagged residual risk: no dedicated carousel-route smoke
test for the @vercel/og path. Adds one, and catches a real bug in
the process.

Findings during test-writing:

1. @vercel/og's ImageResponse runs CLEANLY in Node via tsx — the
   comment in brief-carousel.test.mjs saying "we can't test the
   render in Node" was true for direct satori + @resvg/resvg-wasm
   but no longer holds after PR #3210. Pure Node render works
   end-to-end: satori tree-parse, jsdelivr font fetch, resvg-wasm
   init, PNG output. ~850ms first call, ~20ms warm.

2. ImageResponse sets its own default
   `Cache-Control: public, immutable, no-transform, max-age=31536000`.
   Passing Cache-Control via the constructor's headers option
   APPENDS rather than overrides, producing a duplicated
   comma-joined value like
   `public, immutable, no-transform, max-age=31536000, public, max-age=60`
   on the Response. The route handler was doing exactly this via
   extraHeaders. Fix: drop our Cache-Control override and rely on
   @vercel/og's 1-year immutable default — envelope is only
   immutable for its 7d Redis TTL so the effective ceiling is 7d
   anyway (after that the route 404s before render).

Changes:

- tests/brief-carousel.test.mjs: 6 new assertions under
  `renderCarouselImageResponse`:
    * renders cover / threads / story pages, each returning a
      valid PNG (magic bytes + size range)
    * rejects a structurally empty envelope
    * threads non-cache extraHeaders onto the Response
    * pins @vercel/og's Cache-Control default so it survives
      caller-supplied Cache-Control overrides (regression guard
      for the bug fixed in this commit)
- api/brief/carousel/[userId]/[issueDate]/[page].ts: remove the
  stacked Cache-Control; lean on @vercel/og default. Drop the now-
  unused `PAGE_CACHE_TTL` constant. Comment explains why.

Verified:
- test:data 5820/5820 pass (was 5814, +6 smoke)
- typecheck + typecheck:api clean
- Render smoke: cover 825ms / threads 23ms / story 16ms first run
  (wasm init dominates first render)
