Adds /de/audit and /en/audit with a lead-magnet page (WCAG audit for
free, PDF report + 15min walkthrough) and a request form (name,
company, email, URL, agency/client, motivation), including the
mandatory § 14 BGB business-only notice and confirmation checkbox.
Also, since the site turned out to run exclusively on the Bitpalast
static host rather than Vercel:
- remove vercel.json, port its security headers, agent-discovery
Link header and .well-known CORS/cache headers into public/.htaccess
- fix the .htaccess rewrite so prerendered routes are served instead of
falling back to the empty SPA shell
- self-host Comfortaa/Quicksand via Fontsource instead of Google Fonts
- add a separate backend/ Express service for the audit endpoint,
meant to run on the IONOS VPS independently of the static site
- update the privacy policy to reflect the form and font hosting
