Site improvements: nav refactor, CSS readability, hover fixes, remove unverified badges

- Refactored navigation: all 44 pages now use shared includes/nav.php - Added Free Tools link to navigation (was missing from 29+ pages) - CSS readability: darker body text (#333), secondary text (#555), bolder hero subtitle - CSS: darkened link colour (#148a72) for WCAG AA compliance - CSS: increased stat label font size to 1rem - Fixed industry-card hover white-on-white text bug - Removed ICO Registered and Cyber Essentials claims (not yet registered) - Cache version bumped to v1.1.2
