Feature Request: Support submitting PLC tombstone operations #61

Hey! I was wondering if you'd consider adding support for submitting PLC tombstone records to moover.

I recently ran into a situation where someone wanted to permanently deactivate their DID, and realized there's currently no way to do this through moover's interface.

Right now, the only way I could find to do it was using Bluesky's goat CLI, which involves manually creating a tombstone operation, signing it with the user's PLC rotation key, and submitting it.

The process itself is pretty straightforward:

{
  "type": "plc_tombstone",
  "prev": "<latest-operation-cid>"
}

You then sign that operation with the rotation key and submit it to the PLC directory.

Since moover already has functionality for managing PLC rotation keys, it feels like a pretty natural addition to that interface.

I think this would be a really useful addition, especially for people who don't want to mess around with command-line tools just to clean up an old DID.

Thanks for considering it! ❤️
