Fix artist hero animation grey image during transition

The artist image was turning grey during the hero animation because
ArtistDetailsScreen was deferring image loading until after the 350ms
transition completed. This caused the destination hero widget to show
an empty container instead of the image.

Fix: Pass initialImageUrl from source screens to ArtistDetailsScreen
so the hero has the same image content from the start of the animation.
The higher-res image and color extraction still happen after transition.
