The faint statue backdrop behind the transcript was only switchable via the DEV-only leva panel. Add a persisted Appearance toggle (default on) so users can hide it; the Backdrop simply skips rendering when off.

Duplicate of #49265 — that earlier open PR already adds an Appearance toggle for the decorative chat backdrop (same store/components/settings/i18n files, same localStorage-backed default-on mechanism). Sibling backdrop PRs #54276 (accessibility Off/Subtle/Full) and #54413 (opacity slider) are different controls. Flagging for a maintainer to pick the canonical one. |

Summary
The faint statue backdrop behind the chat transcript (
filler-bg0.jpg) was only switchable via the DEV-only leva panel — end users had no way to turn it off.store/backdrop.ts— a tiny persisted$backdropatom (default on), styled after the neighboring$toolViewModestore; storage guards live inlib/storage.Backdrop.tsx—{on && statue.enabled && …}, so it just skips rendering when off. No transition, pure on/off.backdropTitle/backdropDescacrosstypes.ts+ all locales (en/ja/zh/zh-hant).Test plan
