Optimize channel profile event lookup with author index

- Replaced `NostrClient.rawEvents` standard Map with `EventsMap`
- Implemented `EventsMap` to maintain an author-based index
- Updated `js/channelProfile.js` to use `getEventsByAuthor` for efficient lookup
- Added unit tests for `EventsMap`
- Added benchmark script verifying ~15x performance improvement (637ms -> 41ms for 1M events)
