## Changes

- **LinearWelcome.vue**: New component with 4 sections explaining App
Mode interface, sharing workflows, and widget control
- **LinearPreview.vue**: Replace dimmed logo fallback with LinearWelcome
component
- **i18n**: Add `linearMode.welcome.*` translation keys

## Review Focus

- Copy targets users who have never used ComfyUI—assumes no knowledge of
nodes/graphs
- Component uses semantic Tailwind classes from design system

Fixes COM-14274

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Added a comprehensive welcome screen in App Mode that introduces users
to the simplified interface hiding node graphs, explains the layout
structure with outputs and controls, provides instructions for sharing
workflows as simple tools, and guides users on customizing which
settings are visible through widget promotion.
