fix(insights): eliminate layout shift on the Today's-signal card

The dynamic loader skeleton reserved 120px while the resolved card's
insufficient (~168px) and fired (~192px) states ran taller, shifting the hero
and everything below it down 48–72px on resolve. Pin a min-h-48 on the card
shell sized to the tallest realistic state, and match both the chunk-loader
skeleton and the in-component CardSkeleton to that footprint (including the
44px provenance header row) so there is zero shift across loading → any state.
Announce the fired state to screen readers via a polite role=status (not the
assertive role=alert), and mark the decorative loader skeleton aria-hidden.
