This PR implements a micro-UX improvement by enhancing the accessibility of the project's primary landing page.

💡 What: Replaced the non-descriptive alt="image" attribute on the README.md hero banner with "KibaOS Desktop Environment showing the LXDE desktop with the Arc-Dark theme".

🎯 Why: Generic alt text like "image" is an accessibility anti-pattern. Providing descriptive alt text ensures that visually impaired users using screen readers can understand the visual branding of the project. It also ensures the documentation accurately reflects the current LXDE-based architecture.

Accessibility: Significant improvement for screen-reader users by providing context for the main brand asset.

Related: Complies with requirements in .Jules/palette.md.

Updated the hero image alt text in README.md from "image" to a descriptive
string that accurately reflects the KibaOS LXDE desktop environment.
This ensures compliance with project accessibility standards and provides
a better experience for screen-reader users.

Recorded learning in .Jules/palette.md regarding documentation accessibility.
