thePR0M3TH3ANandClaude Opus 4.8 71cd04b215 perf(login): stop eagerly loading DM history at login
Real-env console (cold nip-07 login) showed list decryption failing en
masse: blocks/hashtags/subscriptions fetched fine (relay cap working —
every sub now fans out to exactly 8 relays) but decryption timed out for
minutes with "message channel closed", only recovering on a page refresh.

Root cause: the single-threaded nip-07 extension channel is overwhelmed
during the post-login handshake. One contributor is the eager DM load —
loadDirectMessages({ limit: 50, initialLoad: true }) ran at login and
fired a burst of decrypts that competed with the feed-driving lists
(blocks/subscriptions/hashtags) for the same channel. DMs are lower
priority (the user isn't viewing Messages at login) and already load
lazily when the Messages tab opens.

Defer the eager DM load; report dms state as "deferred". The lightweight
unread-indicator refresh still runs so the badge stays accurate. First
increment of the "cut the login burst" work (KNOWN_BUGS #0).

Test: tests/app/login-defers-dms.test.mjs (cheat-resistant — asserts
loadDirectMessages is never called at login, dms state is "deferred", and
the unread indicator still runs).
