  Updated sitemap covering every real page built so far.
  IMPORTANT before deploying:
  - This assumes your homepage is at "/" and lastmod dates reflect when each
    page was last substantively edited in this project — adjust if that
    doesn't match your actual deploy history.
  - Nav links like /how-it-works, /shipping, /destinations (index), /track,
    /faq, /why exist in SiteHeader.tsx but the PAGES themselves may not be
    built yet. Do NOT list a URL here until the page is live, or Search
    Console will flag it as a 404 / soft-404. Add each one as you build it.
  - If you already had a sitemap.xml with other real URLs (blog posts,
    legacy pages, etc.), merge those in — this file only includes what was
    built during this project.
