/* =====================================================================
   GCC GROUP (phase 5, 2026-11-11) — country hubs, GCC service pages and /web-design-uae, EN + AR.
   Loaded after pages/service.css (the sv-* template). Markup: resources/views/public/v3/gcc/_ui.blade.php,
   _local.blade.php and the page views. Restyles the shared Blade partials (public/gcc/_packages-local,
   _official-sources, _across-gcc, _cities-block) through wrapper classes; their Bootstrap-era class hooks
   (.container, .row, .col-md-4, .btn, .d-flex …) are neutralised here so a page renders the same with or
   without Bootstrap CSS.
