Add a connect wallet CTA banner on the marketplace for unauthenticated visitors

[Chucks1093]

Summary

Unauthenticated users browsing the marketplace see the same UI as authenticated users with no prompt to connect. A non-intrusive banner at the top of the marketplace encouraging visitors to connect their wallet and explaining the benefits would improve conversion.

Scope

• Show a dismissible banner at the top of the marketplace page for unauthenticated users
• Banner text: 'Connect your Stellar wallet to buy creator keys and start earning'
• Include a Connect Wallet button that opens the wallet connect modal
• Include a dismiss (X) button that hides the banner for the session using sessionStorage
• Hide the banner entirely once the user is authenticated

Acceptance Criteria

• Banner visible for unauthenticated users on the marketplace
• Connect Wallet button opens the wallet connect modal
• Dismiss hides the banner for the session
• Banner not shown after dismissal within the same session
• Banner hidden for authenticated users

ETA: 12 hours

Hello, I’ve reviewed the marketplace banner requirements and understand the authentication and session behavior. I’m confident I can implement the dismissible wallet-connect banner cleanly, including the modal trigger and sessionStorage handling.
