TheFlow ac2db33732 fix(submissions): restructure Economist package and fix article display
- Create Economist SubmissionTracking package correctly:
  * mainArticle = full blog post content
  * coverLetter = 216-word SIR— letter
  * Links to blog post via blogPostId
- Archive 'Letter to The Economist' from blog posts (it's the cover letter)
- Fix date display on article cards (use published_at)
- Target publication already displaying via blue badge

Database changes:
- Make blogPostId optional in SubmissionTracking model
- Economist package ID: 68fa85ae49d4900e7f2ecd83
- Le Monde package ID: 68fa2abd2e6acd5691932150

Next: Enhanced modal with tabs, validation, export
