Replaced individual environment variable access with a unified `DatabaseConfig` struct for all database backends. This centralizes configuration management, reduces redundant code, and ensures all options are documented in `app/config/config.go`. Backward compatibility is maintained with default values and retained constructors.

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.
bump to v0.31.2
- Increase WebSocket message size limit from 500KB to 10MB to prevent
truncation of large kind 3 follow list events (8000+ follows)
- Add validation in SaveEvent to reject kind 3 events without p tags
before storage, preventing malformed events from buggy relays
- Implement CleanupKind3WithoutPTags() to remove existing malformed
kind 3 events at startup
- Add enhanced logging showing tag count and event ID when rejecting
invalid kind 3 events for better observability
- Create round-trip test proving binary tag encoding preserves p tags
correctly through JSON→binary→JSON cycle

WebSocket receive, causing tags to be lost or incomplete

and cleanup (startup)
