Subject: [PATCH] feat: add author info card for nostr-native articles

- Create AuthorCard component showing profile picture and bio
- Display author card after mark as read button
- Only shown for nostr-native articles (not external URLs)
- Fetch author profile data using applesauce ProfileModel
- Card displays author name, avatar, and bio (truncated to 3 lines)
- Responsive design with smaller avatar on mobile
- Elegant card styling matching app design system

Author information helps readers learn more about article authors
directly within the reading experience.
