likecli

In the old SheungWan software, commands are split into two executables: liked for server and likecli for client.

However, since the FoTan upgrade, two commands are now combined, so likecli is deprecated.

If you have keys managed by likecli, you can migrate those keys by liked keys migrate.

For the RESTful API, it is also built into liked, you may enable the APIs from .liked/config/app.toml and open the corresponding ports.
