docs: refresh Platform architecture diagram (#179)
Replace the radial dj-platform.png with an updated SVG showing the open-source core (relational database + code repo + object store) inside a DataJoint Platform frame, with surrounding services labeled explicitly. Switching to SVG keeps the asset small (~10KB vs 160KB) and scales cleanly at any zoom level. Adapted for the conceptual data-pipelines page: - AI bar labeled "AI Interface" (protocol-agnostic, was "(MCP)" in the source slide deck) — keeps the doc durable across protocol choices - Bottom band reworded from governance/compliance language ("Governed Execution / Access Control / Audit Logging / Provenance") to generic pipeline qualities ("Reproducibility / Provenance / Integrity / Collaboration"), which fits a pipelines architecture overview rather than a Platform product pitch Also lightly revise the surrounding prose to make the open-source-core vs. Platform layering explicit, and relabel the core-component table header to "Open-Source Core". Delete the now-unused dj-platform.png.

A DataJoint pipeline integrates three core components:

At the heart of every DataJoint pipeline is an **open-source core** of three components that handle schema, computation, and storage. The managed **DataJoint Platform** extends this core with services for AI access, data ingestion, exploration, security, collaboration, and visualization.
