Two issues from live feedback:

1. The version label said "v0.7.1 · warm-minimalism". The
   suffix is an internal design-direction codename, not
   user-facing. Drop it — the line now just reads "v0.7.2".

2. The ∆ pulse in live mode used only alpha + blur, which is
   too subtle to register at first glance. Replace with a real
   scale-pulse: the whole mark grows from 0.85x → 1.15x → 0.85x
   over 1.6s. Glow halo blur range expanded (8→22) and alpha
   range widened. The triangle also gets a soft fill on the
   up-beat. Easy to spot from across the room.

Bumps fai_studio 0.7.1 -> 0.7.2.
