Updated policy validation logic to apply only to write operations, ensuring constraints like max_expiry_duration and required tags do not affect read operations. Added corresponding test cases to verify behavior for both valid and invalid inputs. This change improves clarity between write and read validation rules.
bump tag to update binary
Added validation to reject invalid max_expiry_duration formats in policy configs, ensuring compliance with ISO-8601 standards. Updated the `New` function to fail fast on invalid inputs and included detailed error messages for better clarity. Comprehensive tests were added to verify both valid and invalid scenarios.
bump tag to build binary with update
Introduce comprehensive tests for policy validation logic, including owner and policy admin scenarios. Update `HandlePolicyConfigUpdate` to differentiate permissions for owners and policy admins, enforcing stricter field restrictions and validation flows.
Introduced default security settings with stricter access control, including policies requiring owner/admin privileges by default. Added multiple pre-configured policy recipes, custom validator support, and extended documentation for security, configurations, and use cases.
Deleted `subscription_stability_test.go` to clean up unused or redundant code. Updated naming in test files for improved readability, replacing `tag` with `tg` for consistency. Also updated the `github.com/klauspost/compress` dependency to v1.18.2.
Introduce tests to validate functionality for new policy fields, including `max_expiry_duration`, `protected_required`, `identifier_regex`, and `follows_whitelist_admins`. Also, cover combinations of new and existing fields to ensure compatibility and precedence rules are correctly enforced.

Policy System Verification & Testing (Latest Updates) Authentication & Security:
Verified policy system enforces authentication for all REQ and EVENT messages when enabled
Confirmed AUTH challenges are sent immediately on connection and repeated until authentication succeeds
Validated unauthenticated requests are silently rejected regardless of other policy rules
Access Control Logic:
Confirmed privileged flag only restricts read access (REQ queries), not write operations (EVENT submissions)
Validated read_allow and privileged use OR logic: users get access if EITHER they're in the allow list OR they're a party to the event (author/p-tag)
This design allows both explicit whitelisting and privacy for involved parties
Kind Whitelisting:
Verified kind filtering properly rejects unlisted events in all scenarios:
Explicit kind.whitelist: Only listed kinds accepted, even if rules exist for other kinds
Implicit whitelist (rules only): Only kinds with defined rules accepted
Blacklist mode: Blacklisted kinds rejected, others require rules
