test(11b): un-quarantine nostr-boost-actions + admin-list-store

Triaged two more silently-excluded test files back into CI.

- nostr-boost-actions: STALE SPEC. Test required buildRepostEvent to throw
  /missing-event-relay/ with no relay hint, but a relay hint is a NIP-18 SHOULD
  (not MUST) — the builder degrades to a two-element `e` tag so a user can always
  repost. Replaced with an exact assertion of the valid output (kind 16 + e/p/k).

- admin-list-store: STALE HARNESS (no production change, no assertion weakened).
  Community curator lists are fetched via the batched SubscriptionManager
  (cold-start relay-storm fix) the harness never mocked; the mock "hex" curator
  values started with "npub" so parseCommunityBlacklistReferences decoded them
  twice; and createListEvent omitted the `d` tag selectNewestEventsForReferences
  matches on. Fixed all three to be faithful to production.

Removed both from the QUARANTINE map; TEST_INTEGRITY.md + TODO updated.

+      /missing-event-relay/ when no relay hint is given, but a relay hint is a NIP-18
+      SHOULD (not MUST). The builder intentionally degrades to a two-element `e` tag so a

+
+      admin-list-store: STALE HARNESS, no production change, no assertion weakened. Three
+      fidelity fixes so the test exercises the real batched community-blacklist path:
+      (1) curator lists are now fetched via the batched SubscriptionManager (cold-start
+      relay-storm fix), which the harness didn't mock — added a getSubscriptionManager().list
+      mock serving the same registry; (2) curator coordinates now use REAL 64-char hex
+      pubkeys (the old mock-"hex" started with "npub", so parseCommunityBlacklistReferences'
+      isHexPubkey()/npub branch decoded them twice and the batched filter no longer matched);
+      (3) createListEvent now emits a `d` tag (real kind-30000 lists always have one;
+      selectNewestEventsForReferences matches curator events to references by their d tag).
+  relaxation:
+    did_relax_any_assertion: false
