Implement 24-hour vote restriction for old messages

- Add time-based validation in apply_karma() method to prevent voting on messages older than 24 hours
- Messages are checked using their timestamp from VK API 'date' field
- Display user-friendly error message when vote is blocked
- Add comprehensive test coverage for the 24-hour boundary
- Include test validation script in experiments/ folder

Fixes #50
