🎨 Palette: Add explicit game controls and aria-live score

💡 What: Added an instructional text div to the Mario game view explaining the controls ("Press Space or Up Arrow to jump") and added aria-live="polite" and aria-atomic="true" to the dynamic score div.
🎯 Why: Custom keyboard event bindings for games require explicit instructions so users know how to play. Adding aria-live to the score ensures screen reader users receive dynamic updates. Keeping the static instructional text out of the aria-live region prevents screen readers from needlessly repeating the instructions every time the score updates.
♿ Accessibility: Improved screen reader accessibility for the score counter and clarified controls.
📸 Before/After: See PR media.
