Accessibility fixes and form session expiration fix

- Fix color contrast: change #179e83 to #148069 for WCAG AA compliance - Add ARIA attributes to mobile nav toggle (aria-expanded, aria-controls) - Implement focus trap on mobile menu with Escape key support - Add aria-hidden to decorative hero SVG - Add ARIA validation to contact form (aria-invalid, aria-describedby) - Fix touch target sizes (notification close button 48x48px) - Fix form session expiration by relaxing timestamp validation - Add cache busting (v1.1.0) to JS/CSS files - Update service worker cache version to force refresh Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
