feat(jupiter): add newsreader profile (RSSHub + Miniflux)

X killed guest API access and now prices reads at $0.005 each with no free
tier, so the only workable personal news reader is a scraping bridge fed by a
burner account's session cookie.

RSSHub turns X accounts, lists and keyword searches into RSS on loopback;
Miniflux is the reader, exposed on the LAN and registered with homepage.
Both secrets live outside the Nix store as root-owned EnvironmentFiles.

Note: the packaged RSSHub reads TWITTER_AUTH_TOKEN — the username/password
login that upstream docs still describe is commented out in that build.
