diigo-cache: date windows and search, designed as skipped specs (goal 1d)

The public page's filters, toward the weekly PESOS roundup (#23):
?days=N (7/30/90/365 presets), gmail-style after/before (UTC days,
half-open: after inclusive, before exclusive; yyyy/mm/dd accepted), and
q (words, "phrases", #tags exact against diigo's comma-separated tags,
- negation); q alone searches the last 365 days and says so; malformed
filters are a 400. Filtering walks diigo's updated-desc pages from 1 and
stops at the window, so ?days=7 costs one page.

src/query.ts is the typed, JSDoc'd API (stubs that throw); 22 specs are
describe.skip until it lands. The fake webapp gains a dated account.

+/**
+ * @file the public page's filters — goal 1d, **not yet implemented**: the
+ * design is pinned by the skipped suites in tests/query.test.ts and
+ * tests/caches.test.ts ("public page filters").
+ *
+ * One filter, two spellings: devs pass a {@link FilterSpec} object
+ * (`{ days: 7, q: "#weekly" }`); URLs carry the same fields as params
+ * (`?days=7&q=%23weekly`, empty fields = absent). `q` also takes the
+ * search operators large audiences already know — gmail's `after:`,
+ * `before:`, `newer_than:7d`; Slack's `during:` (alias `in:`); GitHub's
+ * `created:`/`updated:` — plus words, `"phrases"`, `#tag`/`tag:tag`, and
+ * `-` negation.
+ *
+ * Time is UTC (Z) throughout; weeks are ISO 8601 (Monday first, so a
+ * weekend stays together). Every window is half-open: `after` inclusive
+ * from 00:00Z, `before` exclusive at 00:00Z — so GitHub's inclusive
+ * `a..b` ranges are deliberately not offered.
+ *
+ * Applied while walking diigo's pages (updated-desc). `by=updated` finds
+ * an old window by binary search over the sorted pages; `by=created`
+ * walks from page 1 (an old bookmark edited lately sits near page 1).
+ * Either way a request spends at most {@link FETCH_BUDGET} diigo fetches
+ * (cached pages are free) and says so when results are incomplete.
+ *
+ * @see https://mailmeteor.com/blog/search-gmail-by-date
