Fix news feed table rendering and add Bluesky support

[Copilot]

The news feed displayed a malformed markdown table due to 4-space indentation causing it to render as a code block. Also missing: link to full news archive and Bluesky social media integration.

Changes

• Fixed table rendering in docs/News.md: Removed indentation from transcript comparison table so it renders as proper markdown table instead of code block

• Added news archive link: Inserted header with link to complete news at top of News.md

• Integrated Bluesky:

  • Updated skin.right_nav.whats_new_blurb to include Bluesky link alongside Twitter
  • Added skin.right_nav.show_bluesky configuration property
  • Exposed property in config_service.jsp and FrontendPropertiesServiceImpl.java

• Fixed markup: Corrected </br> to <br/> and upgraded Twitter URL to HTTPS

Before

    | Gene | Old transcript | New transcript |
    |------|---------------|----------------|

Rendered as code block due to indentation.

After

| Gene | Old transcript | New transcript |
|------|---------------|----------------|

Renders as formatted table.

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
