Fix profile broadcasting during signup (issue #201)

Problem

Profile event (kind 0) was not published during signup (initProfile was using empty relay array [])
New users' profiles were not discoverable until they joined a space
Sometimes profile events weren't getting fetched even after providing username

Solution

Publish kind 0 profile event immediately during signup/onboarding
Use smart relay selection: user relays if available, else fallback to DEFAULT_RELAYS
Preserve "protected by default" behavior (PROTECTED tag)
Avoid duplicate profile broadcasts on space join
Await publishes in signup and join flows for better reliability

Changes

initProfile(): Now publishes profile to proper relays instead of empty array
SpaceJoin.svelte & SpaceInviteAccept.svelte: Await broadcast for reliability
SignUp.svelte: Improved flow sequencing
Removed unnecessary re-broadcast of PROFILE kind on space join

Testing

New signup now creates immediately discoverable profile
Profile is no longer duplicated on space join
PROTECTED tag behavior preserved
All checks passing (Prettier, ESLint, Svelte check)

Closes #201

This was a very opinionated change, and I hadn't made up my mind about it really. I went ahead and fixed it myself via e1a7b051bd.
