Extract and use relay hints from bech32 entities (nevent, nprofile, naddr)
and event tag references (e, q tags) to fetch events from hinted relays
not in the user's relay pool.
Changes:
- Parse relay hints from bech32 TLV data in URLHandler
- Pass relay hints through SearchType and NoteReference enums
- Add ensureConnected() to RelayPool for ephemeral relay connections
- Implement ephemeral relay lease management with race condition protection
- Add repostTarget() helper to extract relay hints from repost e tags
- Add QuoteRef struct to preserve relay hints from q tags (NIP-10/NIP-18)
- Support relay hints in replies with author pubkey in e-tags (NIP-10)
- Implement fallback broadcast when hinted relays don't respond
- Add comprehensive test coverage for relay hint functionality
- Add DEBUG logging for relay hint tracing during development
Implementation details:
- Connect to hinted relays as ephemeral, returning early when first connects
- Use total deadline to prevent timeout accumulation across hint attempts
- Decrement lease count before suspension points to ensure atomicity
- Fall back to broadcast if hints don't resolve or respond
