Three new compact tile layouts for birdnet-go-cardSilhouette, Plaque, Bar — ported from a standalone tuning POC and settled at real values, not sliders.

Unlike overlay (a caption treatment of the normal card body), these three replace header/stats/top-species entirely with one small fixed-height block, meant for narrow dashboard columns.

Silhouette Plaque Bar
  • Silhouette (layout: sylwetka) — photo bleeds off the right edge, masked to fade into the card background; the text column sits over the faded part.
  • Plaque (layout: tabliczka) — rounded-square thumbnail beside left-aligned text.
  • Bar (layout: pasek) — circular thumbnail beside right-aligned text.

All three reuse the preset's existing show_* toggles for content — no new config fields — and bake in bleed/thumbnail-size/gap as fixed layout constants at the POC's tuned values. Each falls back to stacked whenever there's no photo, same as overlay.

Verified live on a real Home Assistant instance against an actual BirdNET-Go detection — all three layouts render correctly, zero console errors. Full details in CHANGELOG.md.

Also fixes a stale README image reference: docs/screenshots/birdnet-go-card.png was linked but had never actually been committed — added now.
