Pull request overview
This PR adds first-class Marmot Protocol relay support so the relay can accept Marmot-related event kinds, advertise that support in its relay info document, and enforce protocol-specific handling for welcome rumors and group events.
Changes:
- Added Marmot event kind/tag constants and helper predicates, plus routing for kind 445 to a new
GroupEventStrategy. - Blocked direct publication of kind 444 welcome rumors and exposed
supported_mipsin the NIP-11 relay info document. - Added Marmot-focused tests for event helpers, event validation, strategy factory routing, and the new group-event strategy.

Description
Adds relay support for the Marmot Protocol, the emerging standard for
E2EE group messaging on Nostr (MIPs 00–03).
The relay stays fully transport-only no MLS logic, all cryptographic complexity lives on the client side.

NIP-11 relay info now advertises
supported_mips: [0, 1, 2, 3].Related Issue
Closes #579
Motivation and Context
Nostream has no support for the Marmot Protocol. Adding relay support makes nostream one of the first relays to
explicitly support it, and pairs naturally with the NIP-17+44 work from #458.
How Has This Been Tested?
