New Aero background (Gemini-made), old credit removed

The scene is the user's own Frutiger Aero image now: green hills, a river,
an eco-city, bubbles and daisies. Re-encoded to public/aero/background.webp
(152 kB) with a fresh 3 kB pre-blurred variant for the glass, and the
WallpaperSafari credit line, its i18n keys and the README credit are gone
(the image is made by the user with Gemini).

Contrast: 0 below-minimum findings and 0 axe violations, all three themes.
Version 0.2.8, SW -> freezmo-v60.
