feat(v2): add Awesome Lists hero card on index + Portal Guide nav entry

- New "Awesome Lists" hero-badge card on the V2 index, right after "Get
  Started", linking to /other-awesome-lists/.
- Custom gold-star + list-motif cover (docs/images/awesome-lists-cover.svg),
  matching the Awesome Lists page hero theme.
- New .hero-badge-card--gold modifier.
- Also list "Awesome Lists" under the Portal Guide top-bar menu (after Topic
  Map) for discoverability, in addition to the flagship "⭐ Awesome Lists" tab.
- Card added to the index template (survives regeneration) and to the current
  rendered v2-docs/index.md for immediate deploy.
