feat: configuration enablement — env-var defaults + source resilience

Six small additive changes that make the skill correctly understand its
configured sources, plus tests + docs.

User-visible benefits

- LAST30DAYS_STORE=1 in .env turns persistence default-on without
  remembering --store on every invocation. Mirrors LAST30DAYS_DEBUG /
  LAST30DAYS_SKIP_PREFLIGHT convention.
- SCRAPE_CREATORS_API_KEY (with underscore) accepted as alias for the
  canonical name. Matches the spelling used in the vendor's own example
  code (Adrian Horning's repo); saves the next user the same diagnostic
  rabbit hole.
- Bluesky search now hits api.bsky.app (canonical AppView) instead of
  public.api.bsky.app (BunnyCDN-blocked public mirror as of 2026-05-04).
  BSKY_SEARCH_HOST env var lets users self-rescue future host migrations
  without a code release. Pre-fix: silent 0 Bluesky posts on every run.
- App-password format validator emits a one-shot stderr warning when
  BSKY_APP_PASSWORD doesn't match xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx form. Detect-don't-
  gate: createSession still accepts main passwords; the warning helps
  users identify a hygiene issue without breaking existing setups.
- Instagram retry on multi-token 500. SC's v2 reels endpoint wraps
  Google Search and 500's frequently on multi-word queries; a hashtag-
  form retry runs once before bubbling up. Documented vendor instability.
- LAST30DAYS_TRANSCRIPT_TIMEOUT env var (default 30s, was hardcoded 15s).
  SC's transcript endpoint regularly takes >15s; the old default was
  clipping legitimate responses.
- Silent-failure visibility: new bonus_errored field in the quality
  nudge fires when SC is configured but Instagram returned 0 items.
  Users see "Bonus source silent: Instagram" instead of unexplained
  absence.
- YouTube degraded-ratio false-positive fixed. Captions-disabled videos
  can never produce a transcript regardless of yt-dlp version; they're
  now subtracted from the denominator so a single uploader-disabled
  video doesn't false-trigger the "stale yt-dlp" nudge.
- urllib retry path: status_code attribute typo fix. The Instagram
  500-retry was dead code on the urllib branch (getattr(e, 'status', ...)
  while http.HTTPError exposes status_code).

Docs

- README.md: added /plugin install last30days step after marketplace add
  in three places (the install was previously omitted in the docs).
- CONFIGURATION.md: documented LAST30DAYS_STORE env var, added
  BSKY_SEARCH_HOST + app-password format section, mentioned
  LAST30DAYS_TRANSCRIPT_TIMEOUT in the Instagram source row.

Test plan

- 43 new unit tests across test_bluesky.py, test_instagram_sc.py,
  test_quality_nudge.py, test_youtube_yt.py
- 141 total tests passing in target suite
- Verified end-to-end: /last30days "Toronto resale condo market" with
  all 11+ sources active stored 35 new + 5 updated findings, all builder-
  PR-style accounts absent (organic agent voice in Instagram + TikTok
  results)

Backward compatibility

All changes are strictly additive. Optional kwargs default to None.
New env vars are opt-in. Existing CLI flags untouched. Existing callers
of public functions unaffected.

**Troubleshooting:** if a source you expected to see isn't appearing in results, run `python3 scripts/last30days.py --diagnose`. It prints a per-source availability report (which keys were detected, which CLIs are installed, which backends are reachable) without running a full search.
### Bluesky app-password format and search host
`BSKY_APP_PASSWORD` should be a 19-char app password in `xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx` format (lowercase alphanumeric, three hyphens). Generate one at <https://bsky.app/settings/app-passwords>. The AT Protocol's `createSession` endpoint also accepts your main account login password, but that's bad hygiene — main passwords have no scope (an app password can be limited to non-DM access) and can't be revoked individually.
The skill defaults to `api.bsky.app` for `searchPosts`, which is the canonical authenticated AppView. The previous default `public.api.bsky.app` is the unauthenticated public mirror and is currently blocked by BunnyCDN for `searchPosts` regardless of auth header (verified 2026-05-04). If Bluesky migrates infrastructure again, override the host without a code change by setting `BSKY_SEARCH_HOST` in your `.env`:
```bash
BSKY_SEARCH_HOST=api.bsky.app # default — change only if Bluesky moves
```

Adding `--store` to any run persists every finding to a SQLite database (default at `~/.local/share/last30days/research.db`). Findings dedupe on the `source_url` column (UNIQUE constraint), so the same URL across runs updates the existing row instead of creating a duplicate. The markdown file still saves; the SQLite is the time-series substrate.
**Always-on alternative:** set `LAST30DAYS_STORE=1` in your `.env` instead of remembering `--store` on every invocation. The flag still works as before; the env var is purely additive. Same hybrid pattern as `LAST30DAYS_DEBUG` — works whether shell-exported or in `.env`.
Relevant tables: `topics`, `research_runs`, `findings`, `settings`. Schema: [`scripts/store.py`](skills/last30days/scripts/store.py).
