Contributions summary:Andreas primarily focused on enhancing the `headroom.js` library with features related to detecting when the header is at the top of the page. Their contributions included adding and removing CSS classes (`headroom--top`, `headroom--not-top`) to manage the header's visual state. Additionally, they implemented callbacks for `onTop` and `onUntop` to allow for custom behavior when the header reaches the top or is no longer at the top. They also updated the distribution files after adding these new features and performed unit tests to ensure correct behavior.
