+/**
+ * Drop-in compatibility with the Turnstile / reCAPTCHA / hCaptcha siteverify
+ * contract.
+ *
+ * Every one of those services validates a token the same way: a server-to-server
+ * POST carrying `secret` and `response`, answered with a small JSON object whose
+ * shape has been stable for a decade. Every backend SDK, CMS plugin and Stack
+ * Overflow snippet in circulation speaks it:
+ *
+ *     POST /turnstile/v0/siteverify        (form-encoded or JSON)
+ *       secret, response, remoteip, idempotency_key
+ *     -> {success, challenge_ts, hostname, action, cdata, error-codes}
+ *
+ * FCaptcha's native endpoint (`POST /api/token/verify` -> `{valid, score, ...}`)
+ * is a different shape, which means none of that existing integration work
+ * applies. Serving the familiar contract alongside the native one turns a
+ * migration into a base-URL change, so this module is deliberately an *adapter*
+ * over `verifyToken` rather than a second verification path — there is one
+ * implementation of token validity and this translates its vocabulary.
+ *
+ * Three things the native endpoint did not do, which the contract requires:
+ *
+ *   - `secret` is checked. All three servers previously accepted the parameter
+ *     and ignored it, so anyone who could reach the endpoint could verify
+ *     tokens. The README documented sending it, which made the omission worse:
+ *     integrators believed they were authenticated.
+ *   - `hostname` is reported, so the caller can confirm the token was minted on
+ *     a page they actually serve. This is what stops a lifted site key from
+ *     being used against someone else's deployment.
+ *   - `idempotency_key` makes retries safe. Tokens are single-use, so a network
+ *     timeout on the first validation would otherwise burn the token and fail
+ *     the user's request on the retry.
+ *
+ * Mirrors server-go/siteverify.go and server-python/siteverify.py.
