docs: reconcile protocol docstrings with implementation (#1374)

Browse Source 
- BitchatProtocol.swift: stop advertising "timing obfuscation prevents
  traffic analysis" — what exists is randomized relay jitter
  (RelayController, 10-220 ms) and PKCS#7-style padding to
  256/512/1024/2048-byte blocks (MessagePadding); there is no cover
  traffic or per-message timing obfuscation. Also update the stale
  Message Types list (Delivery/Read are Noise payloads, no Version
  negotiation type; add CourierEnvelope/RequestSync/FileTransfer).
- MessageType.swift: header said "6 essential" types; the enum has 9
  cases.

WHITEPAPER.md needed no changes: the #1372 rewrite already replaced the
old Bloom-filter and MessageRetryService claims, and its numbers
(dedup 1000/5min, jitter, outbox 100/peer 24h 8 attempts, courier
16 KiB/24h/40-20-5-2 quotas, spray 4/8, gossip 1000/15s/6h) all match
the code.
