build: 🔧 use externally hosted image service

Build time increases exponentially with more images pulled in by the eleventy-image plugin. This keeps build times low and shifts computational load to an external image hosting service.

If you've been keeping up with news in the IT space lately, you've probably noticed a very specific trend getting mentioned quite often: "AI"
