Subject: [PATCH] docs: SEO round 2 (Bing) - demote per-page h1 to h2
site-wide, re-trim meta description, bump README/Pages to v0.2.1
Bing Webmaster re-flagged the site after the first SEO pass (32f193a0):
- Every Jekyll-processed doc page (building.md, dev-process.md, internals.md,
porting-notes.md, dev/agentic-development.md, plus index.md caught last
time) opens with its own "# Heading" on top of the Cayman theme's masthead
, so all of them emitted two h1 tags, not just the
homepage. Demoted each page's opening heading to h2 -- anchor slugs are
unaffected (kramdown ids don't depend on heading level).
- index.md's meta description was 161 chars (1 over Bing's 160 limit) and
still said v0.2.0; re-trimmed to 133 chars and bumped to v0.2.1.
- README.md and docs/index.md's Status lines/comparison table bumped from
v0.2.0 to v0.2.1 to match the actual current release.
Verified against a live, cache-busted fetch of the deployed Pages site
(the first Bing report was reading a stale CDN edge cache from before the
32f193a0 deploy, per its own Last-Modified header) that the underlying fix
was already live; this pass addresses what was still genuinely wrong.
