Siavash Sameni 8603087afb v0.0.27: TG-compatible bots — plaintext send, numeric IDs, webhooks, BotFather
Bot compatibility:
- Clients send plaintext bot_message to bot aliases (no E2E encryption)
- Numeric chat_id: fp_to_numeric_id() deterministic hash, accept string/number
- Webhook delivery: POST updates to bot's webhook URL (async, fire-and-forget)
- getUpdates timeout raised to 50s (was 30, TG uses 50)
- parse_mode HTML rendered in web client
- E2E bot registration: optional seed + bundle for encrypted bot sessions

BotFather + instance control:
- --enable-bots CLI flag (default: disabled)
- BotFather auto-created on first start (@botfather alias)
- Bot ownership: owner fingerprint stored in bot_info
- All bot endpoints return 403 when disabled

Bot Bridge:
- tools/bot-bridge.py: TG-compatible proxy for unmodified TG bots
- Translates chat_id int↔string, proxies getUpdates/sendMessage
- README with python-telegram-bot and Telegraf examples

Test fixes:
- Updated tests for ETH address display in header/messages

# featherChat Bot Tools
## bot-bridge.py
Proxy server that makes featherChat compatible with Telegram bot libraries.
### Quick Start
```bash
# 1. Register a bot on featherChat
curl -X POST http://server:7700/v1/bot/register \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"name":"MyBot","fingerprint":"aabbccddaabbccddaabbccddaabbccdd"}'
# 2. Start the bridge
python3 tools/bot-bridge.py --server http://server:7700 --token YOUR_TOKEN --port 8081
# 3. Point your TG bot at the bridge
# Python (python-telegram-bot):
# bot = Bot(token="TOKEN", base_url="http://localhost:8081/botTOKEN")
# Node (Telegraf):
# const bot = new Telegraf("TOKEN", { telegram: { apiRoot: "http://localhost:8081" } })
```
### What it does
- Translates Telegram API calls to featherChat Bot API
- Converts numeric chat_id <-> fingerprint hex strings
- Proxies getUpdates long-polling
- Passes through sendMessage, editMessageText, etc.
### Future: E2E Mode
When E2E bot support is complete, the bridge will:
- Hold the bot's seed/keypair
- Decrypt incoming E2E messages before forwarding to the TG bot
- Encrypt outgoing messages with the user's ratchet session
- The TG bot sees plaintext; the server sees only ciphertext
