Subject: [PATCH] fix: sync new OG images to output during incremental builds

During watcher/incremental builds, .cache/og is in watchIgnores so
Eleventy's passthrough copy doesn't pick up newly generated OG images.
After OG generation, manually copy any new .png files from .cache/og/
to _site/og/ so they're immediately available to serve.
