Tweet metrics API 4 credits

Get a tweet's complete engagement picture in one call: views, likes, retweets, quotes, replies, and bookmarks, the numbers reporting, creator vetting, and citation checks need. When the tweet quotes another, the quoted tweet arrives inline.

Each tweet costs 4 credits. For an account-level view, follower counts and tweet totals, use the profile API instead.
