Spec: https://github.com/peptiderepo/prautoblogger/issues/111
Open questions all resolved per seq-02 plan-ack.
Hostinger's LiteSpeed web server kills any HTTP connection that runs
longer than 120 seconds with a 500 "Request Timeout" error. The full
pipeline (Reddit fetch → topic scoring → article generation → editorial
pass → image gen ×2) takes 120-180s, causing "Request failed: error"
on every manual generation attempt.
Architecture change:
- Generate Now AJAX handler now schedules a one-shot WP-Cron event
and returns immediately (~100ms response time)
- New prautoblogger_manual_generation cron action runs the pipeline
in a separate PHP process free from the connection timeout
- Pipeline progress is written to a transient at each stage
- New prautoblogger_generation_status AJAX endpoint lets the frontend
poll progress every 5 seconds
- Frontend auto-resumes polling on page load if a generation is running
- Direct wp-cron.php loopback ensures cron fires even if DISABLE_WP_CRON
is set (common on Hostinger)
Version bump: 0.2.9 → 0.3.0

The _wp_http_referer hidden field didn't include the tab parameter, so
WordPress redirected to the default (API Keys) tab after every save.
Now the JS syncs the referer with the active tab on both tab switch and
page load. Bumped to v0.2.6 to bust JS cache.
