Implemented split-view map layout for postcode searches:
- List/Map toggle appears when doing location search
- Map view shows interactive map with school markers on left
- Compact school list on right with distance badges, stats, actions
- Mobile responsive: stacks vertically with map on top
- Updated School type to include distance and total_pupils fields

Merged the hero title/description into FilterBar component to save
vertical space. The combined block has a gradient background flowing
from cream to white with the search controls below the header.

1. Show empty state by default on home page
- Don't fetch or display schools until user searches
- Show helpful message prompting users to search
- Only fetch schools when search params are present
2. Change distance search to miles
- Display 0.5, 1, and 2 mile options instead of km
- Convert miles to km when sending to API (backend expects km)
- Convert km back to miles for display in location banner
- Maintains backend compatibility while improving UX
3. Fix metric labels in rankings dropdown
- Backend returns 'name' and 'type' fields
- Frontend expects 'label' and 'format' fields
- Added transformation in fetchMetrics to map fields
- Dropdown now shows proper labels like "RWM Combined %"
instead of technical codes like "rwm_expected_pct"
