The @keydown.tab handler in fediverse-modal.njk contained complex
inline JS with arrow functions, querySelector strings with escaped
quotes, and comparison operators — all of which confused
html-minifier-terser's HTML parser, causing parse errors on every
page that includes the modal (i.e., nearly every page).
Moved the focus-trap logic to a trapFocus() method on the Alpine
component where it belongs.

The accessibility change from <span> to <ul> caused categories to stack
vertically. Add flex utilities to maintain horizontal flow while keeping
the semantic list markup and ARIA attributes.

Articles, notes, and bookmarks were all sharing amber, which
defeats the purpose of per-type color identity.
New complete color map (7 unique colors):
- Articles: indigo (long-form writing)
- Notes: teal (short posts)
- Bookmarks: amber (saved links)
- Likes: red (heart)
- Replies: sky (conversation)

Replace unstyled content flash with pulsing gray placeholder shapes
while the deferred Tailwind stylesheet loads. Uses a 'loading' class
on <html> that critical CSS uses to show skeleton / hide content,
removed by the stylesheet's onload handler.
Includes noscript fallback to bypass skeleton when JS is disabled.

Widget: add noLabels to prevent month abbreviations from squishing
together in the narrow sidebar. Both widget and section: use lighter
boxColorDark (#44403c / surface-700) so empty grid cells are visible
against the surface-800 sidebar/section backgrounds in dark mode.

The ai-usage widget was empty on blog listing pages (/notes/, /photos/)

Article title links now have explicit text color instead of inheriting
the global amber link color. Default article left-border changed from
amber to neutral surface tone. Card hover border toned down to neutral.

PagefindUI in the ~300px sidebar caused 218+ results to expand inline,

Add shared save-later.js module and per-item save buttons to
blogroll, podroll, listening, and news pages. Buttons are hidden
by default and only visible when logged in. Posts to the readlater
plugin API at /readlater/save.
Alpine.js component that lets visitors click any image inside
article content to view it fullscreen with keyboard navigation
(arrow keys, Escape to close) and prev/next buttons.
When markdown images use full https:// URLs, the template was prepending
site.url again, causing double-domain in structured data
(e.g., https://rmendes.net/https://rmendes.net/media/...).
Now checks if postImage starts with 'http' and skips the prefix.
