Fix fxtwitter endpoint URL and confirm response shape against a real call

Browse Source 
Was calling /2/status/<id> (no username) based on the originally-given
example; the actual working endpoint is /<handle>/status/<id> (no version
prefix), confirmed via a real curl response. text, created_timestamp, and
author.name/avatar_url all match the assumed shape exactly — only
media.photos[].url remains unverified (that test tweet had no photo), still
guarded by the existing RSS-image fallback either way.
