The bibliography filename `papers.bib` is hard coded in templates, and
the equivalent setting in `_config.yml` is not used anywhere. So
changing the bib filename in `_config.yml` won't have any effects.

This PR replaces hard-coded filenames with the value from `_config.yml`.

This PR changes the footer text on the website (for both the sticky and
fixed footer) to be centered by default. This change is based on the
discussion post #257.

In this pull request, I've made adjustments to the image element's
handling of dimension properties. Previously, `min-width`, `min-height`,
`max-width`, and `max-height` were incorrectly placed as HTML attributes
on the `<img>` tag, which is not supported for these CSS properties.
This oversight could lead to issues with image responsiveness and layout
stability.

Changes:
- Moved `min-width`, `min-height`, `max-width`, and `max-height`
properties into the `style` attribute of the `<img>` tag. This change
ensures that these properties are correctly applied and recognized as
CSS properties, enhancing the responsiveness and flexibility of our
image displays.
- Retained `width` and `height` as attributes on the `<img>` tag to
maintain the intrinsic aspect ratio of images and help the browser
allocate space before images are fully loaded, improving the page load
experience.

These adjustments will ensure that our images are more responsive and
better adhere to the specified dimensions, improving the overall user
experience for the template.

Closes #1809, but there are caveats:
1 - it only works at build time, which means it won't update the numbers
unless you build your site again
2 - Google might block the request if it receives lots of it, failing
the whole process.

This is how it looks like when it can fetch the information:

This PR introduces an enhancement to the site's image-loading strategy
by implementing lazy loading as the default behavior for all images. The
motivation behind this change is to improve the site's load times.

**Changes:**
1. **Default Lazy Loading:** By `default`, all images will now have the
`loading="lazy"` attribute.

2. **Configurable Option in `_config.yml`:** Added a new configuration
option under `lazy_loading_images.enable`.

3. **Override Capability:** For `specific images` where the user doesn't
want lazy loading, they can `override` this by directly setting the
`loading attribute` in the `image tag`.

This PR fixes issue #2185
and addresses discussion
#2153.

- removes leading whitespace before commas in author list
- fixes author spacing

A proposed solution for #2190. Padding is added such that I considered
it aesthetically pleasing and the bullet points in front of the check
marks were removed.

Our score went down a little bit after the last few changes. Avoiding
lazy loading some images (as introduced in #2183), since [it is strongly
recommended to omit hero images and other images or iframes that are
likely to appear above the fold from being
lazy-loaded](https://web.dev/articles/browser-level-lazy-loading-for-cmss#avoid_lazy_loading_above-the-fold_elements).

Installing , but was in the contents section.

I noticed disabling latest_posts in `_config.yml` didn't work because
the variable in the liquid template was seemingly incorrect. This should
fix that.

The PR replaces `polyfill.io` inside the template with
`cdnjs.cloudflare.com/polyfill`.

---

`polyfill.io` was acquired by **a China-based CDN company** "Funnull",
see [the announcement from the `polyfill.io` domain owner's
Twitter](https://x.com/JakeDChampion/status/1761315227008643367) and
https://github.com/polyfillpolyfill/polyfill-service/issues/2834.
Despite Funnull's claims of operating in the United States, the
predominance of Simplified Chinese on its website suggests otherwise,
and it turns out that **"Funnull" is notorious for providing service for
the betting and pornography industries**.

[The original creator of the `polyfill.io` has voiced his concern on
Twitter](https://twitter.com/triblondon/status/1761852117579427975). And
since the acquisition, numerous issues have emerged
(polyfillpolyfill/polyfill-service#2835,
polyfillpolyfill/polyfill-service#2838,
AlistGo/alist#6100), rendering the
`polyfill.io` service **extremely unstable**. Since then, Fastly
([Announcement](https://community.fastly.com/t/new-options-for-polyfill-io-users/2540))
and Cloudflare
([Announcement](https://blog.cloudflare.com/polyfill-io-now-available-on-cdnjs-reduce-your-supply-chain-risk))
has hosted their own instances of `polyfill.io` service.
