docs(P3a): inline images for self-contained HTML (REQ-268)

New scripts/inline_images.py (stdlib only: base64, re, mimetypes) —
base64-embeds all relative-path <img src='assets/...'> images into
the rendered HTML so it's redistributable without the assets/ folder.
MIME-sniffs by extension (.png->image/png, .svg->image/svg+xml, etc).
render_slides.sh Step 3 invokes it after the MARP HTML render, before
staging. Verified: 2 images inlined, 0 file-path refs remaining.
