new experimental signManifest function, enables people to create app builders(like v0, lovable etc) to sign a mini app manifest for a user

protocol updates

- proposal for app-based storage, timeline is october
- fip for profile tokens, fc app does something similar as a feature but this will push that to the protocol
- fast replication(for running snapchain nodes) — bootstrap from peers, save ~100GB of storage space per node. something snapchain’s design enables that hubs couldn’t do!
