feat: add syntax highlighting for code blocks

Integrates @11ty/eleventy-plugin-syntaxhighlight (PrismJS) for build-time syntax highlighting of fenced code blocks. Includes a custom GitHub-inspired theme with dark mode support (.dark class). All existing articles with triple-backtick code blocks will automatically get highlighting on next Eleventy rebuild. Also fixes overflow-x: hidden on .prose/.e-content that was clipping scrollable code blocks — changed to overflow-x: clip. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
