DW Collection Hero — Steve standing rule (2026-06-23): every collection page
must have a background "bg" hero image. Renders collection.image as a full-bleed
cover background with the title + breadcrumbs + description on a SEMI-OPAQUE
CONTRASTING PANEL (dark scrim panel) so the text stays legible over any image.
Collections with no image fall back to a branded gradient so the page is never
broken; audit-collection-hero-images.py lists which collections still need one.
Also HIDES the Boost AI Search & Filter app's own collection banner (the
duplicate lower banner) + any legacy theme breadcrumbs, so only this hero shows.
Toggle by removing it from templates/collection.json "order".

BANNER RESOLUTION GATE (Steve 2026-07-30, TK-10053): a full-bleed hero must
NEVER stretch a low-res source (e.g. a 500px sample swatch) — that is what
produced the blurry Hollywood Wallcoverings banner. Three render modes:
image -> collection.image is high-res (>= dw_min_w) : single full-bleed cover (sharp)
mosaic -> no high-res file "for that build" : 2x2 quadrant of product
images, each cell ~half page-width so a 500px source stretches
~1.3x instead of ~5x (visibly sharp) and 4 swatches read as curated
fallback-> collection has no usable product image : branded gradient
