Subject: [PATCH] Update navigation bar to have a colorful border and smooth
 hover effects

Adjusted CSS styles for the navigation bar, specifically targeting the border and hover animations.
The `body::after` pseudo-element now has a thicker border with a transition for all properties.
A new `navbar-inner::before` pseudo-element is introduced to create a gradient border effect on hover, with opacity transitioning over 0.6s.
The `.navbar-inner:hover` style is updated to only change the `border-color` to transparent, relying on the new pseudo-element for the visual effect.
