fix(georelay): make CSV parser nonisolated and call as Self.parseCSV to satisfy Swift 6 actor isolation

* perf(chat): batch public inserts, sort batch by ts; add per-sender + per-content token buckets; content-based near-dup suppression; reuse compiled regexes; single token scans per row; disable list animations during batches

* perf(chat): conditional animations via isBatchingPublic; late-arrival binary insert; flush public buffer on channel switch; prewarm formatting on flush

* perf(chat): batching, spam rate-limits, near-dup LRU, adaptive flush, faster trims, regex/detector reuse, conditional animations, late-insert, current-mode prewarm, Swift 6-safe timer/closures

 ### 4.2. Favorites and Blocking
 
 To improve the user experience and provide control over interactions, the protocol supports:
-*   **Favorites:** Users can mark trusted or frequently contacted peers as "favorites." This is a local designation that can be used by the application to prioritize notifications or display peers more prominently.
+*   **Favorites:** Users can mark trusted or frequently contacted peers as "favorites". This is a local designation that can be used by the application to prioritize notifications or display peers more prominently.
 *   **Blocking:** Users can block peers. When a peer is blocked, the application will discard any incoming packets from that peer's fingerprint at the earliest possible stage, effectively silencing them without notifying the blocked peer.
