koi: swap the sakura panels for a shoal of letter-drawn koi

Five varieties (kohaku, ogon, sanke, showa, tancho) swim in the side
margins, drawn the way the reference does it: every cell is a filled tile
in the koi's colour with a letter punched into it in near-black, picked
from a thin-to-thick ramp by how dense that part of the body is. The tile
carries the colour, the letter carries the texture.

The grid is square and the geometry is in pixels, snapping to cells only
when one is written. Laying the body out in grid cells instead makes its
proportions depend on heading -- thickness is perpendicular to travel, so
on the natural text grid a fish swimming sideways came out short and fat
while one swimming up came out slim.

The body is a follow-the-leader chain with a bend limit per joint. A spine
projected from the head rotates rigidly the moment the fish turns, and a
raw position trail coils into a ball; the chain lags and the bend cap
keeps it from curling. Swimming comes from the head yawing with the tail
beat, which the chain propagates as a travelling wave.

Tails dissolve into loose tiles toward the tip, and the panels carry a 1em
cell grid so the motion reads against something.

Drops the sakura wiring: no art.php parse, no sideart.php stylesheet, no
<pre> layers, and the inlined sideart @font-face goes with them (-6.9 KB
of base64 from style.css). art.php, sideart.php, sakura.ans and the woff2
are left on disk, now unreferenced.

+ * Koi for the side panels -- letters on a square cell grid, swimming.

+ * Rendering follows the reference: every cell is a filled tile in the koi's

+ * the colour and its brightness, the letter carries the texture, picked from
+ * a thin-to-thick ramp by how dense that part of the body is. Drawing bright
+ * letters on a dark page instead looks nothing like it.
+ *
+ * The grid is square. Using the natural text grid (cells ~.6 as wide as they
+ * are tall) makes a fish's proportions depend on its heading: thickness is
+ * perpendicular to travel, so swimming sideways comes out short and fat.
+ *
+ * The body is a follow-the-leader chain with a bend limit per joint, not a
+ * spine projected from the head. A projected spine rotates rigidly the
+ * instant the fish turns; a chain lags, and the bend limit stops it coiling
+ * into a ball the way a raw position trail does.
