Add NIP-44 v2 encryption #41

Description

@BenGWeeks

nwcprovider only advertises nip04 in its kind-13194 info event. Most clients (Alby SDK, Damus, Amethyst, Primal etc.) prefer nip44_v2 and fall back to nip04 with a deprecation warning.

Would be good to advertise nip44_v2 and implement the matching encrypt/decrypt paths. NIP-44 v2 needs HKDF-SHA-256 + ChaCha20 + HMAC-SHA-256, all available via the cryptography dep that LNbits already pulls in (same approach pynostr's existing encrypt_message takes for AES-CBC).
