Scrape YC company pages for founders, upsert the deduplicated founder dataset +
founder<->company edges, and refresh founder_stats. ?full=1 forces a rebuild;
?limit=N bounds the run to N not-yet-sourced companies (incremental nightly batch;
omit for the full set); ?sync=1 waits for completion (manual testing).
