fix: load freshness, wttrin path, compile-time package init

Set load-prefer-newer in early-init.el. Emacs was loading the older .elc files even when the .el source was newer, warning on every load but still using the stale byte code.

Point weather-config.el's wttrin :load-path at /home/cjennings/code/emacs-wttrin. The previous value was /home/cjennings/code/wttrin, which does not exist, so use-package could not load the package.

Add (package-initialize) to the Makefile compile target. Without it, batch byte-compile cannot see ELPA packages like git-gutter, git-timemachine, forge, and difftastic, which produced "Cannot load" warnings on every run.
