Make Sasquatch tell the truth: direct relay queries, not a CVM server

The chat's data layer (useCVMClient) queries Nostr relays directly from the
browser — the CVM/ContextVM server round-trip was removed earlier for speed.
But the UI and system prompt still claimed data came "from the CVM server",
which is no longer true. Aligned every user-facing claim with reality:

- System prompt: reframed "CVM Tools / MUST route through CVM" as "Live data
  tools that query the Nostr relays directly". Tool-calling behaviour unchanged.
- Streaming status: "Querying CVM for X" → "Searching the relays for X".
- Tool-failure message: no longer blames a non-existent "CVM server"; now
  correctly frames it as relays being slow, with a retry nudge.
- Empty results: stop asserting "not added yet" as fact — an empty result can
  also mean slow relays or a misspelled place. Now offers retry + add-a-spot,
  and names the place searched. Applied to the local formatter, the system
  prompt rules, and the second-pass AI instruction.
- Chat footer: "Powered by ContextVM & Nostr Relays Data" → "Live data from
  Nostr relays" (links the primary community relay).
- About page credit: "AI powered by ContextVM" → "Trust & crew chat via
  ContextVM" (its real role: Relatr trust scores + encrypted crew chat).
- Owner CVM health panel: clarified it probes the standalone MCP server and
  that the in-app chat does not depend on it.
- Updated stale internal comments in SasquatchGuide + CreateSpotPage.

ContextVM references that ARE accurate (Relatr trust scores, crew-chat Cordn
coordinator) were left intact. Build clean, no console errors.
