Serve actual RSS XML at /feeds/posts/default instead of an HTML meta-refresh redirect that RSS readers can't follow.

Fixes #16

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

RSS readers can't follow HTML meta-refresh redirects, so requesting
/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss returned unusable HTML instead of a feed.
Replace the Astro redirect with an actual endpoint that serves the same
RSS XML as /rss.xml.

Fixes #16

Pull request overview

This PR restores compatibility for RSS readers by serving real RSS XML at the legacy Blogger feed route (/feeds/posts/default) instead of relying on Astro’s generated HTML meta-refresh redirect.

Changes:

  • Add a prerendered endpoint at /feeds/posts/default that delegates to the existing /rss.xml feed handler.
  • Remove the Astro redirect that previously produced a meta-refresh HTML page for the legacy feed URL.
