- The link-preview fetcher, relay broadcast tracker, and CLI-safe util extensions.

- **Misc.**
- Added a monochrome outline Cashu icon to the Material Symbols set.
- Renamed `ReplaceableVideoEvent` to `AddressableVideoEvent` for spec accuracy.

- Merged duplicate `when`/`if` arms across the codebase.
- Migrated `Log` calls to the lambda overload.
- **Documentation.**
