Subject: [PATCH] feat: populate quotedCids when publishing replies with quote
 references

Parse reply content for >>{postNumber} references, resolve post numbers to CIDs via usePostNumberStore, and include resolved CIDs in publishCommentOptions when publishing. Extracted quote handling into reply-quote-utils.ts for testability and clarity.
