DanConwayDev 5ecd8d6a43 feat: implement state event authorization per GRASP-01 spec
Add comprehensive authorization checks to ensure state events are only
accepted from maintainers of accepted repository announcements. This
implements the core GRASP-01 requirement that pushes must match the
latest state announcement "respecting the maintainer set."

Changes:

1. StatePolicy authorization (src/nostr/policy/state.rs):
   - Check authorization BEFORE git data validation (fail-fast)
   - Reject if no announcement exists for repository
   - Reject if author not in maintainer set
   - Use existing helpers: fetch_repository_data() and
     pubkey_authorised_for_repo_owners()
   - Structured logging for all rejections

2. Purgatory invalidation (src/nostr/builder.rs):
   - New method: check_purgatory_state_events_for_identifier()
   - Called when announcements accepted (Accept and AcceptMaintainer)
   - Re-evaluates state events in purgatory for the identifier
   - Processes newly-authorized events (releases from purgatory)
   - Keeps unauthorized events for natural expiry (30 min)
   - Enables retroactive authorization when announcements arrive late

3. Purgatory sync authorization (src/git/sync.rs):
   - Check authorization BEFORE processing git data
   - Remove unauthorized events from purgatory (permanent rejection)
   - Prevents processing even if git data arrives first
   - Structured logging for monitoring

4. Rejected events tracking (src/sync/rejected_index.rs):
   - Add support for tracking rejected state events
   - New methods: add_state(), contains_state()
   - Separate metrics for state rejections
   - Enables sync to avoid re-fetching rejected states

5. Sync metrics (src/sync/metrics.rs, src/sync/mod.rs):
   - Add state-specific metrics (hot cache, cold index)
   - Track rejected states separately from announcements
   - Support monitoring of authorization rejections

6. Comprehensive tests (tests/state_authorization.rs):
   - test_reject_state_without_announcement
   - test_reject_state_from_unauthorized_author
   - test_accept_state_from_announcement_author
   - test_accept_state_from_maintainer

Security Impact:
- Before: State events could be published by anyone
- After: Only maintainers can publish state events
- Defense-in-depth: Authorization checked at 3 points:
  1. On arrival (StatePolicy)
  2. On announcement acceptance (purgatory re-evaluation)
  3. On git data arrival (purgatory sync)

All tests pass:
- 248 unit tests
- 51 NIP-34 announcement tests
- 4 new state authorization tests
- 9 rejected index tests

Closes: State authorization requirement from GRASP-01 spec
