Fix NIP conformance in domain kinds; add domain docs/skill
NIP fixes:
- RelayMembers (13534): use NIP-43 `member` tags (not `p`) and set the required
  NIP-70 `-` protected tag.
- Profile (kind 0): remove display-name support entirely (getter, setter, display()
  fallback, and the search weight).
- Comment (1111): A/a tags now carry a real address, not the event id.
- BlossomServerList (10063): normalize server URLs with normalizeUrl (HTTP), not
  normalizeRelayUrl (which forced wss://).
- HandlerRecommendation (31989): fix inverted removeRecommendation filter; add
  setSupportedKind()/supportedKind() for the NIP-89 d-tag.
- Report (1984): place the report-type string on the e tag (note reports) or p tag
  (profile reports); always emit the p tag.

Docs/skills:
- Add @welshman/domain docs (docs/domain/) and the welshman-domain skill.
- Prune @welshman/util docs/skill of the moved Profile/List/Handler/Encryptable
  helpers; register domain in the sidebar, index, and skills README.
- Apply accuracy fixes to the @welshman/app docs/skill.

# Zaps
The lightning-zap flow (NIP-57) and zap goals (NIP-75) are modeled by three kinds: `ZapRequest` (what a sender publishes to ask for a zap), `ZapReceipt` (what the recipient's LN service publishes as proof of payment), and `ZapGoal` (a fundraising target). All three are plain `EventReader` / `EventBuilder` subclasses — see [Readers & Builders](./readers-and-builders) for the base pattern.
## Zap request (kind 9734)
The zap request you send to a recipient's LNURL callback. The comment is the event content; everything else is tags.
```typescript
import {ZapRequest, ZapRequestBuilder} from "@welshman/domain"
const req = await ZapRequest.fromEvent(event)
req.amount() // millisats as an int, or undefined ("amount" tag)
req.lnurl() // string | undefined
req.recipient() // p-tag value
req.eventId() // e-tag value (the zapped event)
req.urls() // the "relays" tag, sliced past the key
req.comment() // event.content
const template = await new ZapRequestBuilder()
.setAmount(21000) // millisats
.setRecipient(recipientPubkey)
.setLnurl(lnurl)
.setEventId(zappedNoteId)
.setUrls(["wss://relay.example"]) // ["relays", ...urls]
.setComment("great post")
.toTemplate()
```
`buildTags` always emits a `relays` tag (bare if you never called `setUrls`).
## Zap receipt (kind 9735)
The receipt is generated by the recipient's lightning service, so it is effectively **read-only** in practice. `parse` decodes the embedded zap request out of the `description` tag into `plain`, which the getters read through.
```typescript
import {ZapReceipt} from "@welshman/domain"
const receipt = await ZapReceipt.fromEvent(event)
receipt.bolt11() // the invoice
receipt.invoiceAmount() // amount parsed from bolt11, or undefined on parse failure
receipt.request() // the embedded zap-request event (TrustedEvent | undefined)
receipt.sender() // request.pubkey
receipt.recipient() // p-tag value
receipt.eventId() // e-tag value
receipt.comment() // the embedded request's content
receipt.preimage() // string | undefined
```
The important method is `verify(zapper)`, which validates the receipt against a `Zapper` (the recipient's LNURL zapper info from `@welshman/util`). It checks that the request is present, that the invoice amount matches the requested amount, that the sender is not the zapper itself, and that the recipient / lnurl / nostr pubkey are consistent. It returns a boolean.
```typescript
import type {Zapper} from "@welshman/util"
const ok: boolean = receipt.verify(zapper)
```
A `ZapReceiptBuilder` exists (`setBolt11`, `setDescription`, `setRecipient`, `setEventId`, `setPreimage`) for completeness — e.g. tests or a service generating receipts — but you rarely construct these by hand.
## Zap goal (kind 9041)
A fundraising target. The title is the content; the goal amount and relays are tags.
```typescript
import {ZapGoal, ZapGoalBuilder} from "@welshman/domain"
const goal = await ZapGoal.fromEvent(event)
goal.title() // event.content (or "")
goal.summary() // "summary" tag value
goal.amount() // millisats as an int, default 0
goal.urls() // "relays" tag values
const template = await new ZapGoalBuilder()
.setTitle("Fund the relay")
.setSummary("keeps the lights on")
.setAmount(1000000) // millisats
.setUrls(["wss://relay.example"]) // one ["relays", url] per url
.toTemplate()
```
`validate()` requires a title (throws `ZapGoal requires a title`), and `buildTags` always emits an `amount` tag (defaulting to `["amount", "0"]`).
