hermes/branding: drop the Hermes-fashion-house commentary; orange is just a palette colour

Browse source 
Removes the 'Not Hermès' warning box, the 'collision check' callout, the
horsey-mascot don't-row, and the orange-luggage footer line. Orange moves
from an alternate / cautioned colour into the regular palette grid alongside
sky — three swatches (orange, orange-light, orange-deep).

Both the standalone hermes.x branding page and the silentmode.st/hermes
nested branding page updated in parallel so they stay consistent.
