Add a 404 page layout

oschwald · claude · oschwald · commit 71fe8c4f29a0 · 2026-05-20T14:29:33.000Z
Hugo's built-in fallback renders an empty `&lt;main&gt;&lt;/main&gt;` for the
404 page. Provide a minimal "Page not found" body with a link back
to the site home, reusing the Charter/forest-green design tokens
from the main layout.
