Adds a section that gives consumers concrete guidance on how to customize firn-explorer for their L1: swap branding assets, regenerate against firn's OpenAPI on schema changes, drop or rewrite any of the existing routes, wire decoded surfaces by extending firn with a custom decoder.

Closing line frames the explorer's job: faithful renderer of firn's API. Everything cosmetic is yours to change.

The firn-explorer README pitched itself as a 'reference frontend' but
gave consumers no concrete guidance on how to make it theirs.

New section walks through four customization paths:
- Swap branding assets (firn.png, OKLCH tokens, app/layout.tsx)
- Add new pages against firn's typed OpenAPI client (orval regenerates
  on firn API changes)
- Drop or rewrite any of the existing routes
- Wire decoded surfaces by extending firn with a custom decoder

Closing line frames the explorer's job: faithful renderer of firn's
API. Everything cosmetic is yours to change.
