Vijay Janapa Reddi c005be91aa chore(announcements): drop self-link CTAs from Line 1 of every subsite
Every subsite's announcement bar Line 1 carried a 'Start reading →' / 'Start building →' / 'Get started →' link that pointed at the very subsite the reader was already on. Clicking it was a no-op self-navigation.

Strip the CTA from Line 1 across all 8 sites that have the regression:
  - announcement-vol1.yml  drop 'Start reading →'
  - announcement-vol2.yml  drop 'Start reading →'
  - tinytorch              drop 'Start building →'
  - mlsysim                drop 'Get started →'
  - kits                   drop 'Get started →'
  - labs                   drop 'Preview →'
  - slides                 drop 'Browse decks →'
  - instructors            drop 'Start here →'

Line 1 keeps the bold identity statement, which is what readers came for. The other lines (Vol I / II links, sibling row, newsletter CTA) keep their navigations since they DO lead somewhere new.

announcement-book.yml is unchanged — its Line 1 already points at the ecosystem root (https://mlsysbook.ai/), not at /book/ where the reader is.
