Recipient search: usernames and npubs, in chat and the Send form

A shared engine (src/recipient-search.js) merges three ranked sources:
an exact npub/hex paste, coinos usernames from the registrar's new
/search prefix endpoint, and NIP-50 kind-0 full-text search on
relay.nostr.band — the approach the major web clients take, since
ordinary relays don't index profiles. Results dedupe by pubkey, fill
avatars in one batched kind-0 fetch, and cache per query so narrowing
never re-hits the network. Input is debounced 300ms and gated by a
searchable() heuristic so addresses, invoices, and keys never trigger
a search.

Chat's New message panel narrows as you type and opens the thread on
pick; the Send form shows the same candidates under the destination
input and picking one runs the normal paste path (payment address →
BIP-353, npub → zap).
