Krzysztof kuhy Rudnicki 14d422295f feat: a word with two meanings gets the one made of steel
!pułapka (and !trap, !sidła, !wnyk, !potrzask, 26 spellings in all) posts a
photograph of the literal device -- a bear trap, a mousetrap, a snare, a fish
weir -- captioned with what Commons says it is.

The pool is 2218 Commons page ids, harvested by tool/gen_traps.py from a
curated seed list and committed. Page ids and not filenames on purpose: a
filename carries photographers' and sitters' names, and one of those
colliding with a label somebody mints from the chat would wedge
check_personal_data.py permanently, over data nobody can edit by hand.
_repo_vocabulary() subtracts aliases.json and nothing else, so it would not
have caught it. An integer cannot carry a name.

Nothing is cached. !papież caches because 267 portraits are a closed set a
group works through; a uniform draw from 2218 warms a cache essentially
never, so this fetches per call the way !kot and !pies do.

What the harvest measured, and now enforces:

- five plausible seed categories do not exist (Snares, Man traps, Hunting
  traps, Wasp traps, Animal trapping). A missing category is an empty answer,
  not an error, so verify_seeds() asks Commons before harvesting and fails
  loudly naming all of them.
- depth three from Category:Fish traps reaches Alfred Sisley's net paintings.
  Depth one, from seeds picked by hand.
- "<thing> in art" categories are paintings: Mousetraps in art put a Robert
  Campin altarpiece in the pool. Pruned by pattern, since Commons mints a new
  one whenever somebody needs it. Booby traps, the Wolfsangel, camera traps
  and animals dying in traps are pruned by name.
- Commons rate-limits hard, so a partial harvest must not be committed
  silently: 429 backs off, and a short pool refuses to write at all.

Descriptions are HTML and sometimes say nothing, so the tags come out, the
Fisheries records' trailing catalogue list is cut, a description naming only
the country falls back to the filename, and the file's own page is always
linked.

!łapka is not an alias: it resolves to !papa at distance two, which
test_nearest.py fails on, and rightly -- the suggestion would be a coin toss.

signal_bot/commons.py is the imageinfo query both Commons commands now share;
portraits.py keeps its behaviour and its tests unchanged.
