Add 8 NYT bestseller / award-winning books (batch 7) with award badges

Per the discussion of which NYT bestsellers and award winners to add, this PR adds 8 widely-taught, bestselling titles — the "popular / taught fiction" set — each with a complete 8-section deep-dive guide in the full-sentence prose standard. The collection grows 34 → 42.

Books added

🏆 The Book Thief (Zusak) · The Hate U Give (Thomas) · Where the Crawdads Sing (Owens) · Pachinko (Min Jin Lee) · Homegoing (Gyasi) · The Outsiders (Hinton) · The Giver (Lowry) · The Perks of Being a Wallflower (Chbosky)

Each carries an awards array (e.g. Newbery Medal, National Book Award Finalist, #1 NYT Bestseller, Printz Honor).

Award metadata & badges

  • New optional awards field on Book (src/data/types.ts).
  • Award pills now render on book cards (🏆 + top award) and in the guide-page header.
  • Award backfill for notable existing winners so pills appear across the established canon too — To Kill a Mockingbird, The Grapes of Wrath, Beloved (Pulitzer), Their Eyes Were Watching God, Things Fall Apart — centralized in books.ts.
  • New "Decorated Reader" 🏅 Trophy Case badge for finishing 5 award-winning titles, built on the existing badge framework in src/data/badges.ts.

Architecture

Follows the established batch pattern: src/data/books/award-winners.ts (the 8 records) and src/data/deepdives-7.ts (the 8 guides), both merged in src/data/books.ts. Filters remain Theme-only per the earlier request — no new filter group.

Verify

  • npm run build succeeds; 42 book routes export (the PR build CI job runs it too).
  • Confirmed: all 8 new guides render the full 8 sections; award pills appear on new books and on backfilled classics; the "Decorated Reader" badge shows on /rewards; trophy pills appear on the home grid.
