feat(related): photo cards — 6 on desktop, 4 on phones, each post's own share card

Related posts were 4 text-only cards. They now carry the post's language-specific
ogImage (/og/<slug>.jpg for EN, /og/zh-<slug>.jpg for ZH), so an English page never
shows Chinese art. Grid is 3 across above 900px, 2 across below, and phones show the
first 4 only; read-time is dropped under 600px so the date fits.

Verified in the built HTML + headless Chrome at 1264/884/500px: 3/2/2 columns,
6/6/4 visible cards, no horizontal overflow, all six images decoded.
