MichilisandClaude Opus 5 3f7b2d51db Redesign the PDF ticket around the branded card layout.
The old ticket was a centred stack of Helvetica on white that read as a
receipt: the QR sat in open space, the event, attendee and code lines
were indistinguishable at a glance, and nothing on the page identified
Spanglish beyond a text heading. The page is now a full-bleed card --
orange rule, cream field, navy footer -- with the logo and event title
in the header, the QR raised into a white rounded panel above its code,
and labelled venue and ticket holder blocks below it, so door staff can
find the code and the name without reading the page.

The ticket is bilingual, driven by the ticket's preferredLanguage: the
labels, the terms line, the Spanish event title and the date format all
follow it, with 24h time and day-first ordering in Spanish. Events
store the venue as one string, so the text before the first comma is
treated as the venue name and the remainder as its address.

Layout adapts rather than overflowing: long titles wrap to two lines at
a smaller size, and the QR panel flexes so the detail block always
lands just above the footer. The single and combined generators were
copies of each other and now share one page renderer, with multi-ticket
bookings marked by a small counter in the panel.

The logo ships as backend/assets/logo-spanglish.png, resolved from both
src/lib and dist/lib, falling back to the frontend copy and then to a
text wordmark, so a deployment that misses the asset still produces a
ticket.
