Subject: [PATCH] feat(web): rewrite welcome-modal copy to pitch the
 keyboard-first identity

The welcome overview and FAQ still pitched Compass as a generic minimalist
calendar app. Rewrites the headline/subheading and two FAQ answers to lead
with the keyboard-first pitch from the vision doc, matching what 01/02/04
already teach in the tour itself.
