Subject: [PATCH] fix: add 30s startup delay before first webmention poll
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The poller fired immediately after indiekit was backgrounded, before
the HTTP server finished initializing — causing curl error 52 (empty
reply). A 30s initial sleep gives indiekit time to become ready.
