Subject: [PATCH] fix: load VTCDuBois fonts directly from Vercel Blob

In SSR/dynamic rendering mode, the Node.js server handles all requests
before Vercel's rewrite layer fires. Since VTCDuBois font files are
gitignored and not in the deployment, the server returns 404 before the
rewrite to Blob can kick in.

Fix by pointing @font-face src and preload links directly to the Blob
URL. Remove the now-unnecessary vercel.json rewrite.

Split from #447.
