Alternative.images: array of urls, rendered as a Swiper card deck

image: Option<String> becomes images: Vec<String> (nothing in live
content used the old field). One url renders as the plain banner it
was; several become a swipeable cards-effect deck via Swiper Element
12.2.0, vendored into public/ (MIT) like prosekit-editor.js/yes.js
rather than pulled from a CDN - the bundle only loads on pages where
some alternative actually declares more than one image.
