fix(bloomword): stop claiming browser play

The site said Bloomword was "playable free in the browser at bloomword.earth"
in four places. It is not: bloomword.earth is the marketing and transparency
site, and iOS and Android are the only platforms you can play on.

This is the full-surface release standard's web-app gate -- marketing copy
flips from "learn more" to "play" only after play.<domain> passes a parity
proof against the mobile core loop -- and that surface does not exist yet
(play.bloomword.earth does not resolve). Every claim becomes "learn more at
bloomword.earth" with iOS/Android named as the only playable platforms, per
the standing item in the Bloomword roadmap.

The VideoGame structured data already declared gamePlatform [iOS, Android]
and needed no change; the footer link carries no play claim and is untouched.

Not built or typechecked: this workstation has no node. The changes are
string literals inside existing quoted copy, with one JSX text edit that
keeps its {" "} separator and closes the sentence after the anchor.
