Redesigned changelog page as a vertical timeline with date on the left, dot in the centre, and time on the right — all linked to the commit — fixing invalid date rendering and reducing the title font size for mobile viewports.

Fix 24 stylelint errors in site.css and _layout.css (modern color notation, empty lines, single-line blocks) and register the missing past Eleventy filter so it can be used in templates.

-
Add timeline navigation to tag pages: a pulsing NOW divider splits past and upcoming games, the next fixture gets a hero card, and Upcoming/Previous tabs let you scroll either direction in time.
