feat: redesign CloudArchitecture section with dark theme and animated icons

- Added animated icon components (MeshNetworkIcon, SovereignComputer, DeterministicOrchestration) to architecture cards
- Updated styling to match dark theme with bordered container layout consistent with HomeHosting section
- Improved card layout with better spacing, hover effects, and visual hierarchy
