fix: load Alpine.js in reader layout and allow private addresses for own host in author resolution (v2.9.2)

- views/layouts/ap-reader.njk: Replace incorrect comment "Alpine.js
  loaded by default.njk" with an actual Alpine.js CDN script tag.
  Without this, all Alpine directives on the remote-profile page
  (x-data, @click, x-text, :class) were dead — Follow/Mute/Block
  buttons showed no label and clicks did nothing.

- lib/resolve-author.js: Add createPublicationAwareDocumentLoader()
  which wraps the authenticated Fedify document loader to opt in to
  allowPrivateAddress for requests to the publication's own hostname.
  Fedify blocks private IP ranges by default; self-hosted instances
  (localhost / private IPs) were failing author resolution for their
  own posts with a private-address error. All three lookupObject calls
  in resolveAuthor() now use the wrapped loader.
