Release prep v0.0.12: README rewrite, fix binary size everywhere
Sourav: 'the entire readme sounds like written by an AI not a human. Keep Duckie as a marketing tool though.' Done: - Hero rewritten as first-person ("I built Duckle because I wanted Talend's connector depth without Talend's JVM dance"). Keeps the Duckie marketing punch, drops the templated 'Three things make X different' construction. - 'What Duckle does' replaced with 'How a pipeline actually runs' - walks through what each node type compiles to in real SQL with specific table-naming + topological-sort behavior, then lists the six things that bypass SQL. - 'Why Duckle is different' table (puffery: 'Visual never opaque', 'Local-first AI', 'Honest about scope') replaced with 'Why these choices' prose. Six concrete decisions explained as paragraphs with the actual cost/trade-off each one pays. Sounds like a developer at the keyboard, not a marketing one-pager. - 'Meet Duckie' rewritten without the templated 4-cell feature table. Keeps the sell ('runs on your CPU', 'no API key', 'click Insert and it appears on the canvas') but in flowing prose. - 'Status, honestly' replaces 'Status'. First-person, includes the specific 'I shipped 23 connectors in the last week alone' and the scope statement without the templated 'It will not pretend to be a cluster' phrasing. - FAQ rewrite: dropped 12 <details> blocks for a markdown Q&A format. Each answer is one or two paragraphs of real talk, no 'Yes! Absolutely!' marketing energy. Includes the honest 'binary grew from 9 MB to 30 MB and here's why' admission, the 'how good is Duckie really' honest answer, the 'why DuckDB and not Polars' with specific reasons. - Recipes section: pseudo-arrow recipes ('src.csv -> qa.not_null -> snk.parquet') replaced with 6 actual JSON pipelines that paste into a workspace file and run. Shows real props for each node. - Binary size: fixed everywhere. 9 MB claim removed; replaced with the actual 27-30 MB range + a per-platform table + an explanation of what's in the binary vs what downloads to app-data. - Bumped tauri.conf.json to 0.0.12 (Sourav skipped 0.0.11).
