Dashboard globe runs on Mapbox Standard: the look the Driver kept naming

Every wording of the ask described Mapbox itself -- the globe space style
with stars, the atmosphere, water like the Mapbox style. Mapbox Standard
renders all of that natively; no found clone matches the original. The
working baked token is already accepted as public by explicit ruling.

One key changed. The MapLibre path (VersaTiles Colorful, keyless) stays
fully built and reversible by flipping provider back.
