Two operator-reported Artists-view bugs.
Layout: ArtistCard previews used aspect-ratio: 3/1 + max-height: 220px — when a
lone grid column got wide (>~660px), the max-height made the aspect-ratio box
shrink its own WIDTH to keep the ratio, leaving dead space beside the 3
thumbnails. Dropped max-height (kept the min-height floor) so the strip fills the
card width; lowered the grid min 440→360px so a lone column stays <732px (strip
≲244px) and desktop gets 2+ columns.
Flicker: isEmpty checked !loading, but on the first render loading is still false
(the initial loadMore fires in onMounted, after paint) so "No artists match"
flashed for a frame before the spinner/data. Added a reactive `loaded` flag (true
after the first load attempt, reset on reset()); isEmpty now also requires it.
