Adds a relativeTime() helper (src/app/utils/time.ts) built on Intl.RelativeTimeFormat and uses it in the shared Time component so messages/events show "2 days ago", "10 minutes ago", etc. instead of a fixed clock time. The absolute date/time is kept as a hover tooltip, and the label refreshes every minute so it stays current.

Feed post cards had no timestamp at all. Add the shared Time component next to the sender's name, using the post group's most recent event timestamp and the same relativeTime() formatting used elsewhere.
