Subject: [PATCH] docs(readme): serve footer social badges + star-history from
 snapshots (#261)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Pairs with **wickra-lib/.github#32**. The README footer (GitHub stars / forks / issues) hot-linked `img.shields.io` directly, so it showed shields' transient **"unable to select next github token from pool"** error live; the star-history chart hot-linked `star-history.com` and **froze** behind GitHub's Camo image cache (the embedded `<img>` is proxied + cached, while the linked page renders fresh).

All four now point at the committed snapshots in the `.github` repo (`raw.githubusercontent.com/wickra-lib/.github/main/profile/badges/{stars,forks,issues,star-history}.svg`), refreshed hourly by the new `refresh-social.yml` — so a broken upstream never reaches the page and the last good SVG is always served. The `<a>` links and the visual style are unchanged.

## Merge order
Merge **.github#32 first** (it creates the snapshot SVGs), then this one — otherwise the footer would briefly point at missing raw URLs.

Not merging yet — for review.
