README Custom section: two hero shots side by side, shorter copy

Swapped the single full-page custom-04 screenshot for two hero-only shots side

periodic-table tea menu, so the section shows the range without dumping a whole
page. Trimmed the Custom blurb down to the essentials.

Most briefs route to the catalog. But when a brief carries real creative intent (a named brand colour, a vibe the catalog can't carry, or a layout that *is* the point) Hallmark switches to **Custom** and designs the whole page from first principles: a made-to-measure OKLCH palette, a free-font pairing, and a structure no catalog theme would produce. Same fifty-seven slop-test gates. No template underneath.

One brief, one page that looks like nothing else in the catalog:

Custom stays a quiet branch. Vanilla briefs never see it. The protocol lives in [`custom-theme.md`](skills/hallmark/references/custom-theme.md).
