Note

This PR refreshes loading experiences across the dashboard and leaderboard by introducing more tailored skeleton UIs and wiring them into dynamic widget loading fallbacks.
Changes:
- Replaced the generic dashboard
SkeletonCardwith multiple purpose-specific skeleton components and updated dynamic/LazyWidget fallbacks accordingly. - Updated loading placeholders in
TopReposandPinnedReposWidgetto better match the final layouts. - Added a dedicated
src/app/leaderboard/loading.tsxroute-level skeleton for the public leaderboard page.
