Hover-info card — outline indicator variants

The freshness card (sidebar, bottom-left) keeps its data visible and moves the cadence explainer into a hover popover. Each variant shows a different resting outline that signals the card is hoverable — the reusable convention for any card with hover info. Hover any card (or Tab to it) to reveal the popover. Light institutional register, tokens from src/index.css.

All three keep the data visible at rest and disclose the cadence prose on hover — rule #08 compliant (visible indicator, not a hidden title). The chosen outline becomes a reusable wrapper (e.g. <HoverCard>) so every hover-info card across the dashboard carries the same signal. Reveal works on hover and on keyboard focus (Tab). Pick one and I build it into FlexSyncPanel + extract the shared affordance, then update the data-source map.
