refactor(home): remove duplicate FAQ section, merge unique Q&As into HomepageFaq

The homepage rendered two FAQ blocks — an inline "Common Questions" section
plus the <HomepageFaq /> component above the final CTA — which produced two
FAQPage JSON-LD entries and a redundant accordion. Consolidate on
HomepageFaq (self-contained, polished accordion, better a11y) and:

- delete the inline FAQ <section>, the `faqs` array, the `faq={faqs}` prop
  on <SEO>, the orphan .faq-question/.faq-answer/.faq-icon CSS, and the
  initFAQ() boot script + its call in index.astro
- merge the 4 unique inline questions (support, process, team augmentation,
  security) into HomepageFaq's moneyFaqs; the 2 duplicates (technologies,
  timeline) were already covered there
- refresh HomepageFaq's lead-in copy and comments to reflect it as the
  single canonical homepage FAQ

Result: one FAQ heading + one accordion in the DOM, exactly one FAQPage
JSON-LD with 10 Q&A pairs, no broken anchor links.

+// HomepageFaq — single homepage FAQ section rendered just above the final
+// CTA band. Covers both buyer-stage objections (cost, timeline, NDA, IP, GeM,
+// stack) and the process/support/security questions that used to live in the
+// older "Common Questions" block higher up the page. That earlier block was
+// removed to avoid a duplicate FAQ rendering and a duplicate FAQPage JSON-LD
+// emission — this component is now the canonical homepage FAQ.
 //
-// Why a dedicated component instead of reusing the "Common Questions" block
-// further up the page:
-//   - The questions here target buyers in late-stage evaluation (cost,
-//     timeline, NDA, IP, GeM, stack). They convert better when surfaced next
-//     to the final CTA, not next to the testimonials.
-//   - Emitting FAQPage JSON-LD only once per page is the recommended pattern
-//     for rich-result eligibility. The existing FAQ block above also emits a
-//     FAQPage via <SEO> — so this component renders ONLY the visible UI; the
-//     schema for these questions is appended to the parent's `faq` array in
-//     src/pages/index.astro so Google still sees a single, valid FAQPage with
-//     all 12 Q&A pairs.
+// Emits a single FAQPage JSON-LD inline (below) for rich-result eligibility.
