jackwener e9efa11fa5 fix: warn when querying other users' likes (private since Jun 2024)
Twitter/X made all likes private since June 2024. The likes command now:
- Detects if the target user differs from the authenticated user
- Shows a clear warning that only your own likes are visible
- Updated SKILL.md and README.md with likes privacy limitation

Closes #8
