feat: Phase 7 — Node v2 (multi-group, Sender Keys, 0-RTT, chat, denylist)

Implements all 8 milestones (7.0-7.7):

- 7.0: JWT carries `groups` claim; node verifies group membership at
  MNP handshake (QUIC + TCP+TLS). Resolves security review C2.
- 7.1: QUIC 0-RTT session resumption via stored session tickets
  (17-21ms reconnect vs 47ms cold).
- 7.2: Hub→node WebSocket signaling for NAT punch coordination
  (`client_incoming`/`punch_ready`) + jti denylist push. Denylist
  class blocks revoked users/jtis at handshake.
- 7.3: Multi-group daemon — one QUIC port serves N groups with
  per-group GEK, shared_root, and index routing.
- 7.4: HLS streaming via QUIC (STREAM_SEGMENT message type, ffmpeg
  segment extraction).
- 7.5: Sender Keys protocol for group chat (Signal Groups approach).
  Each member has own sending chain key, HKDF chain ratchet, AES-256-GCM
  encryption, Ed25519 signing. Resolves security review C1.
- 7.6: Chat store (SQLite via aiosqlite), CHAT_MESSAGE MNP wire type
  with peer broadcast, web UI with WebSocket push.
- 7.7: Argon2id calibration CLI.

First security review included (first-review.md). 109 tests, demo-v3
validated against meshbay.org production hub.

+MeshBay — Sender Keys protocol for group messaging.
+
+Signal Groups approach: each member maintains their own sending chain.
+Advantages over shared Double Ratchet:
+  - O(N) state per group (one chain per member) vs O(N^2) pairwise
+  - Single encrypt per message (not N encryptions)
+  - No key/nonce reuse — each sender has an independent chain
+
+Key components:
+  - Chain key ratchet: HKDF per message, provides forward secrecy
+  - Message key derivation: separate HKDF from chain key
+  - Ed25519 signing: each sender signs their ciphertext
+  - AES-256-GCM encryption: browser-compatible symmetric cipher
+
+Key distribution:
+  - On join: admin wraps each sender's SenderKeyDistribution with GEK
+  - On leave: all remaining members rotate their chain keys
