* feat: first implementation of honeypot logic
This is a bit of an experiment, stick with me.
The core idea here is that badly written crawlers are that: badly
written. They look for anything that contains `<a href="whatever" />`
tags and will blindly use those values to recurse. This takes advantage
of that by hiding a link in a `<script>` tag like this:
```html
<script type="ignore"><a href="/bots-only">Don't click</a></script>
```
Browsers will ignore it because they have no handler for the "ignore"
script type.
This current draft is very unoptimized (it takes like 7 seconds to
generate a page on my tower), however switching spintax libraries will
make this much faster.
The hope is to make this pluggable with WebAssembly such that we force
administrators to choose a storage method. First we crawl before we
walk.
The AI involvement in this commit is limited to the spintax in
affirmations.txt, spintext.txt, and titles.txt. This generates a bunch
of "pseudoprofound bullshit" like the following:
> This Restoration to Balance & Alignment
>
> There's a moment when creators are being called to realize that the work
> can't be reduced to results, but about energy. We don't innovate products
> by pushing harder, we do it by holding the vision. Because momentum can't
> be forced, it unfolds over time when culture are moving in the same
> direction. We're being invited into a paradigm shift in how we think
> about innovation. [...]
This is intended to "look" like normal article text. As this is a first
draft, this sucks and will be improved upon.

* refactor(dns): simplify FCrDNS logging
* docs: clarify verifyFCrDNS behavior
Add a note to the documentation for `verifyFCrDNS` to clarify that it returns true when no PTR records are found for the given IP address.
* fix(dns): Improve FCrDNS error handling and tests
The `VerifyFCrDNS` function previously ignored errors returned from reverse DNS lookups. This could lead to incorrect passes when a DNS failure (other than a simple 'not found') occurred. This change ensures that any error from a reverse lookup will cause the FCrDNS check to fail.
The test suite for FCrDNS has been updated to reflect this change. The mock DNS lookups now simulate both 'not found' errors and other generic DNS errors. The test cases have been updated to ensure that the function behaves correctly in both scenarios, resolving a situation where two test cases were effectively duplicates.
* docs: Update FCrDNS documentation and spelling
Corrected a typo in the `verifyFCrDNS` function documentation.
Additionally, updated the spelling exception list to include new terms and remove redundant entries.

* chore: add dependabot cooldown
One of the things I need to worry about with Anubis is the idea that
could pwn a dependency and then get malicious code into prod without
realizing it, a-la Jia Tan. Given that Anubis relies on tools like
Dependabot to manage updating dependencies (good for other reasons),
it makes sense to have Dependabot have a 7 day cooldown for new
versions of dependencies.
This follows the advice from Yossarian on their blog at [1]. Thanks
for the post and easy to copy/paste snippets!

This is a utility type that lets you decode a JSON T or list of T as a

* perf: replace cidranger with bart for IP range checking
- Replace cidranger.Ranger with bart.Lite in RemoteAddrChecker
- Use netip.ParsePrefix instead of net.ParseCIDR for modern IP handling
- Improve performance: 3-20x faster lookups with zero heap allocations
- Update imports to use github.com/gaissmai/bart and net/netip
- Remove cidranger dependency from go.mod
Benchmark results:
- IPv4 lookups: 4x faster (15.58ns vs 63.25ns, 0 vs 2 allocs)
- IPv6 lookups: 3x faster (26.51ns vs 76.96ns, 0 vs 2 allocs)
- Insertions: 20x faster (976ns vs 19,191ns)
- Large tables: 14x faster (5.2ns vs 74.85ns)

The hash is used for JWT cookie validation and error code generation.
Comma separation provides the same deterministic uniqueness as newlines
but with significantly better performance during policy initialization.
