Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Add AJAX-based like with localStorage one-like-per-7-days
 enforcement

Intercept emoji-form submissions with fetch to /api/like (existing JSON
endpoint) so the page no longer redirects on like. The like count updates
in-place on the UI. A localStorage key per URL+emoji (with 7-day expiry)
prevents repeat likes from the same browser.

The server-side like() endpoint and /favorite alias are untouched so
older clients, extensions, and JS-disabled browsers keep working via the
original form-post-and-redirect flow.

Made-with: Cursor
