DanConwayDev 8190a3a1b4 Fix audit system tag filtering and event validation
- Changed from multi-letter custom tags to single-letter tags (g, r, c)
  for compatibility with Nostr Filter API
- Added validation check in send_event() to detect relay rejections
  by checking output.success and output.failed
- Improved connection stability with retry loop
- Added debug output for troubleshooting query issues
- All tests now pass: 12/12 unit tests, 6/6 integration tests
- CLI verified working with Docker relay

Fixes issues discovered during Path 1 integration testing.
