feat(UX): Major overhaul of UI, theming, and state management

This commit introduces a wide range of improvements to the application,
addressing critical bugs, enhancing user experience, and adding core
new functionality. The focus is on creating a more robust, visually
consistent, and intuitive interface.

### 🎨 Theming and UI Refactor

- **feat(theme):** Implemented a custom Streamlit theme in `config.toml` based on Anthropic's light aesthetic for a clean, professional look.
- **refactor(CSS):** Replaced all hardcoded color values in the custom CSS with Streamlit's theme variables (e.g., `var(--text-color)`). This makes all custom components fully adaptive and resolves all visual bugs when switching to Dark Mode.
- **fix(UI):** Redesigned the cluttered batch analysis results view. The verbose list of "DETAILS" buttons has been replaced with a clean and compact `pandas` DataFrame, summarizing key results for successful files. Failed files are now listed separately in a collapsible expander.

### ✨ New Features

- **feat(core):** Added user-configurable preprocessing. A new number input in the sidebar allows users to set a custom resampling length (`TARGET_LEN`), providing greater flexibility for experimentation. This required surgically updating model loading and inference function signatures to be aware of the dynamic length.

### 🐞 Bug Fixes and UX Enhancements

- **fix(UX):** Prevented duplicate file uploads in batch mode. The application now filters the uploaded file list to keep only unique files based on a combination of their name and size, preventing redundant processing. The user is notified if any duplicates are removed.
- **fix(state):** Corrected critical state management bugs related to the "Reset" and "Clear Results" buttons.
- The main "Reset All" button now correctly clears the entire application state, including the file uploader widget in `col1`, by using a versioned `key` that forces a full re-render.
- A new, dedicated "Clear Results" button in `col2` now correctly clears *only* the analysis results, leaving the uploaded files in place for re-analysis.
- **docs(content):** Updated the "Get Started" instructions to be more accurate and comprehensive, explicitly mentioning all three input modes (Single, Batch, Sample) and the new preprocessing functionality.

### 🛠️ Code and State Management

- **refactor(state):** Created dedicated callback functions (`reset_ephemeral_state`, `clear_results_state`) with clear separation of concerns to handle state-clearing logic robustly.
- **refactor(code):** Replaced the `create_batch_uploader()` utility function with a direct `st.file_uploader` call using a versioned key, simplifying the code and enabling reliable resets.

-            ##### Get started by:
-            1. Select an AI model in the sidebar
-            2. Upload a Raman spectrum file or choose a sample
-            3. Click "Run Analysis" to get predictions
-            
-            ##### Supported formats:
-            - Text files (.txt) with wavenumber and intensity columns
-            - Space or comma-separated values
-            - Any length (automatically resampled to 500 points)

+            ##### How to Get Started
+
+            1.  **Select an AI Model:** Use the dropdown menu in the sidebar to choose a model.
+            2.  **Provide Your Data:** Select one of the three input modes:
+                -   **Upload File:** Analyze a single spectrum.
+                -   **Batch Upload:** Process multiple files at once.
+                -   **Sample Data:** Explore functionality with pre-loaded examples.
+            3.  **Run Analysis:** Click the "Run Analysis" button to generate the classification results.

+
+            ##### Supported Data Format
+
+            -   **File Type:** Plain text (`.txt`)
+            -   **Content:** Must contain two columns: `wavenumber` and `intensity`.
+            -   **Separators:** Values can be separated by spaces or commas.
+            -   **Preprocessing:** Your spectrum will be automatically resampled to 500 data points to match the model's input requirements.
