Added Swurf codes to easily transfer your Swurf to any other device or browser without an account

From the (...) menu -> Your Swurf code (shows up after a few swipes)

Thank you to everyone who participated in the launch so far and the great feedback/discussion

Thanks for the bug report - being added. As for the learning there are a few components at play but ultimately can be thought of as an interest crawler where pages with higher engagement branch deeper into their on page links and similar work from the author/root.
