Description
### Describe the feature
With Bluesky taking off recently it would be really useful to be able to scrape posts and profiles there in the same way that the legacy twitter module used to work.
The API documentation suggests that calls can be made against a public endpoint without authentication https://docs.bsky.app/docs/advanced-guides/api-directory and the calls look to be well documented.

Research direction
Start by reading the linked Bluesky AT Protocol API documentation and inspect the existing legacy Twitter scraper for its post and profile behavior. Identify the scraper entry points and tests that govern service support. Done means Bluesky posts and profiles can be scraped through the public API with equivalent coverage and passing tests.
