Alternative to the heuristic #4871 based on community feedback.

This fixes the double-reply loophole and actually opens up the default Following heuristic to be a bit more broad than the current default one on the website. We'd include not only replies between people you follow (which is the current default), but also replies where you follow only the replier and the thread OP, or only the replier and the grandparent. In other words, we'd show the reply if there's at least one other person you'd recognize looking at the context above that reply.

In practice this means you'd see banter where you don't follow some people as long as there's one more reason to display them (e.g. you follow the OP, the parent, or the grandparent).

For example, I don't follow Jeremy but this still surfaces Stephanie's reply to Jeremy (because I follow Eustace):

Here, I don't follow Anna, but the thread has Amy and Rahaeli (both of whom I follow) so I see it too:

I like this. Seems like a good compromise. A one-off reply won't be shown, but if there's a whole subthread it probably will be.

    [Persisted] Fix the race condition causing clobbered writes between tabs (bluesky-social#4873)

    * Broadcast the update in the same tick

    The motivation for the original code is unclear. I was not able to reproduce the described behavior and have not seen it mentioned on the web. I'll assume that this was a misunderstanding.

    * Remove defensive programming

    The only places in this code that we can expect to throw are schema.parse(), JSON.parse(), JSON.stringify(), and localStorage.getItem/setItem/removeItem. Let's push try/catch'es where we expect them to be necessary.

    * Don't write or clobber defaults

    Writing defaults to local storage is unnecessary. We would write them as a part of next update anyway. So I'm removing that to reduce the number of moving pieces.

    However, we do need to be wary of _state being set to defaults. Because _state gets mutated on write. We don't want to mutate the defaults object. To avoid having to think about this, let's copy on write. We don't write to this object very often.

    * Refactor: extract tryParse

    * Refactor: move string parsing into tryParse

    * Extract tryStringify, split logging by platform

    Shared data parsing/stringification errors are always logged. Storage errors are only logged on native because we trust the web APIs to work.

    * Add a layer of caching to readFromStorage to web

    We're going to be doing a read on every write so let's add a fast path that avoids parsing and validating.

    * Fix the race condition causing clobbered writes between tabs

    [Persisted] Fork web and native, make it synchronous on the web (bluesky-social#4872)

    * Delete logic for legacy storage

    * Delete superfluous tests

    At this point these tests aren't testing anything useful, let's just get rid of them.

    * Inline store.ts methods into persisted/index.ts

    * Fork persisted/index.ts into index.web.ts

    * Remove non-essential code and comments from both forks

    * Remove async/await from web fork of persisted/index.ts

    * Remove unused return

    * Enforce that forked types match

    Show replies in context of their threads (bluesky-social#4871)

    * Don't reconstruct threads from separate posts

    * Remove post-level dedupe for now

    * Change repost dedupe condition to look just at length

    * Delete unused isThread

    * Delete another isThread field

    It is now meaningless because there's nothing special about author threads.

    * Narrow down slice item shape so it does not need reply

    * Consolidate slice validation criteria in one place

    * Show replies in context

    * Make fallback marker work

    * Remove misleading and now-unused property

    It was called rootUri but it was actually the leaf URI. Regardless, it's not used anymore.

    * Add by-thread dedupe to non-author feeds

    * Add post-level dedupe

    * Always count from the start

    This is easier to think about.

    * Only tuner state need to be untouched on dry run

    * Account for threads in reply filtering

    * Remove repost deduping

    This is already being taken care of by item-level deduping. It's also now wrong and removing too much (since it wasn't filtering for reposts directly).

    * Calculate rootUri correctly

    * Apply Following settings to all lists

    * Don't dedupe intentional reposts by thread

    * Show reply parent when ambiguous

    * Explicitly remove orphaned replies from following/lists

    * Fix thread dedupe to work across pages

    * Mark grandparent-blocked as orphaned

    * Guard tuner state change by dryRun

    * Remove dead code

    * Don't dedupe feedgen threads

    * Revert "Apply Following settings to all lists"

    This reverts commit aff86be.

    Let's not do this yet and have a bit more discussion. This is a chunky change already.

    * Reason belongs to a slice, not item

    * Logically feedContext belongs to the slice

    * Update comment to reflect latest behavior
