Apple Podcasts' top charts into the directory weekly, and its categories checked (#252)

With apple_country set, the directory fetches Apple's top 100 podcasts and the top 50 of each of
its 19 categories for that country (itunes.apple.com/{cc}/rss/toppodcasts), looks up each
show's RSS address (/lookup, 100 ids a call, three seconds apart, as Apple asks for no more than
about twenty a minute), and stores them as the snapshot apple-podcasts with no subscribers. The
refresher fetches them like any feed; the most-subscribed chart is unchanged. Apple's primary
genre goes in as the snapshot's category, used only while a feed names none.

The same weekly run reads Apple's genre tree (ws/genres?id=26) and warns when it differs from
ipx_feed's CATEGORIES; on 2026-10-15 they were the same, all 19 and their subcategories.

A syncs table keeps when it last ran: at start if a week has passed, again weekly, an hour after
a failure. keep_instances spares apple-podcasts, which no token holds, and no token may take
the name. A trace a sync, a span each answer.

CLAUDE.md: builds one cargo command at a time, the load looked at before and after, after a
build chained with a test compile took Tower past 200.
