- relayInfo.ts: checkNip50Support fetches NIP-11 relay info (Accept:
application/nostr+json) and checks supported_nips for 50; results
cached per session with 4s timeout; getNip50Relays checks all relays
in parallel
- SearchView: relay NIP-50 support checked on mount in the background
and shown as context in the idle state ("N of M relays support
full-text search") and in zero-results states
- Zero results for full-text search now shows:
- relay NIP-50 count (or "none of your relays support full-text")
- prominent "Search #<query>" one-click button to retry as hashtag
- Tabs (notes / people) now always rendered after any search, not only
when both result types are non-empty — makes the UI consistent
- Per-tab zero-results explanations: people tab explains NIP-50
requirement when no relay supports it
