fetch GitHub star count dynamically in docs header (#1202)

* fetch GitHub star count dynamically in docs header

Replace the hardcoded "27k" star count with a live fetch from the
GitHub API, revalidated every 24 hours via Next.js fetch caching.
Gracefully hides the count if the API is unreachable.

* remove GITHUB_TOKEN usage from star count fetch
