Update cost estimate to reflect actual usage (50x more accurate)

Browse source 
Issue: UI showed estimated cost of $0.15 per check, but actual
usage data shows average cost of only $0.003 per check - a 50x
difference!

Analysis from actual usage report:
- L'Oreal: 2 analyses, 6 checks total
- Cost: $0.02 total = $0.003 per check
- Old estimate: $0.15 per check (way too high)
- New estimate: $0.01 per check (conservative but realistic)

Changes:
- Updated cost calculation from 0.15 to 0.01 per check
- Updated display text from "$0.15 each" to "~$0.01 each"
- Applied to both web_ui.html and frontend/index.html

Example:
- Before: 3 checks = $0.45 estimated
- After: 3 checks = $0.03 estimated
- Actual: 3 checks = ~$0.01 (based on real usage)

New estimate is much closer to reality and based on actual
Gemini API usage data from production analyses.
