Fix IndexedDB cache-first loading strategy

Complete rewrite of caching approach - check IndexedDB BEFORE network queries for instant loads.

Key changes:
- Removed fake "local relay" approach (doesn't work with NPool)
- useAuthor: Check eventStore.getManyProfiles() first, return cached instantly
- useFollowList: Check eventStore.query() first, return cached instantly
- useFeed: Check eventStore.query() first, return cached instantly
- All hooks: Fire background network refresh after returning cached data

Fixed bugs:
- getKey() now returns correct key type for each store
- Removed debug logging spam
- Proper error handling (silent failures for cache writes)

Result: When data is cached, queries return in <10ms instead of waiting for network.
