Add Ko-fi integration to allow visitors to contribute toward hosting costs. This is not about monetization — it's a way for users who enjoy the tool to optionally help cover server/infrastructure expenses.

## Open Questions

- [ ] Where should the Ko-fi link/button live? (footer, about page, dedicated page, or subtle banner?)
- [ ] Should it be a simple outbound link to a Ko-fi page, or use Ko-fi's embeddable widget/overlay?
- [ ] Should there be any acknowledgment for supporters (e.g., a thank-you page, supporter list)?
- [ ] Should this be gated behind user auth (only shown to logged-in users) or visible to everyone?
- [ ] Any legal/tax considerations to document?
