…idServer#288) Sign-in note used to read "Sign in from inside the Solid app you want to use" — honest about today's standalone-login gap, but vague. Names pilot as a concrete onramp instead: Already have an account? Sign in from a Solid app — for example, pilot is a minimal console you can open right now. Point it at this server and click Sign In. Pilot's gh-pages deploy at https://solid-apps.github.io/pilot/ is the target — same URL we already publish from, so no new coordination. Mashlib stays unmentioned by design. It auto-injects on every pod resource via --mashlib-module and serves a different role (the data browser, always-there plumbing). Pilot is the inviting first impression this landing was missing. Adds a small CSS rule so the link is styled as a real link rather than inline text. Updates the existing landing test to assert the pilot URL is present.

Fixes #288.
Change
Sign-in note on the `/idp` landing used to read "Sign in from inside the Solid app you want to use" — honest about today's standalone-login gap, but vague. Names pilot as a concrete onramp instead:
5-line change in `landingPage()` plus a small CSS rule so the link looks like a link.
Why pilot, not mashlib
Different roles:
Both still have a place. The landing just names the inviting one.
