Pull request overview
This PR adds forwarding of inbound WhatsApp reaction events to the configured webhook endpoint as a typed webhook payload (eventType: "reaction"), while preserving the existing persistence semantics introduced in PR #108 (emoji in content, reacted-to message ID in filename / reactionToMessageId).
Changes:
- Extend the webhook payload schema to support typed reaction events (
eventType,reactionToMessageId,reactionEmoji,reactionRemoved) and add a dedicatedSendReactionWebhookhelper. - Update message handling to forward inbound reactions to the webhook (including empty-emoji removal events) while honoring
FORWARD_SELF. - Add tests validating reaction webhook forwarding behavior (add, removal, self-forwarding disabled, and “no key” ignored) and document the reaction webhook payload in the README.
