feat: add NixOS module for deployment

- Create nix/module.nix with comprehensive systemd service
- Support both relayOwnerNsecFile and relayOwnerNsec options
- Auto-generate nsec if neither specified
- Add security hardening (NoNewPrivileges, ProtectSystem, etc.)
- Expose as nixosModules.default and nixosModules.ngit-grasp
- Include example configuration in nix/example-configuration.nix
- Add outputHashes for nostr git dependency

# 2. Import the module in your configuration:
# imports = [ inputs.ngit-grasp.nixosModules.default ];

# 3. Configure the service (example below)
