jackandClaude Fable 5 fb80403cd4 Gateway mode: opt-in mesh↔Nostr uplink for geohash channels
An opt-in "internet gateway" toggle lets one connected phone bridge the
local geohash channel for mesh-only peers: signed kind-20000 events ride
a new nostrCarrier (0x28) packet — directed to the gateway for uplink,
broadcast with TTL for downlink — with Schnorr verification at every
hop, CourierStore-style quotas, and explicit loop-prevention rules.

- BitFoundation: MessageType.nostrCarrier = 0x28
- NostrCarrierPacket: 2-byte-length TLV codec (direction, geohash,
  signed event JSON), 16 KiB cap, tolerant decoder
- GatewayService: closure-injected policy layer — verify gates (sig,
  kind, #g tag, age, size), uplink quotas (10/min/depositor rate limit,
  offline queue of 20 total / 5 per depositor, drop-oldest, flush on
  reconnect), downlink budget (30/min, bounded drop-oldest backlog),
  bounded loop-prevention ID sets
- BLEService: runtime capability bits (advertise .gateway only while
  the toggle is on, re-announce on change), signed directed uplink
  sends, carrier ingress with depositor signature verification
- Mesh-only senders uplink automatically from sendGeohash when no relay
  is connected and a reachable peer advertises .gateway; once-per-
  channel "sent via mesh gateway" notice
- UI: gateway toggle beside the Tor toggle, globe header indicator,
  VoiceOver labels, xcstrings entries
