fix: return HTML for browser Accept headers on root route (#532)

[Justxd22]

Description

• fix / content negotiation to serve NIP-11 only for explicit application/nostr+json requests
• prevent typical browser Accept headers (e.g. text/html,...,*/*) from being treated as NIP-11 requests
• reuse the same explicit Accept check in router middleware and rootRequestHandler
• add unit coverage for explicit NIP-11, browser Accept header, and q=0
• add integration coverage for browser-style Accept header returning HTML

Pull request overview

This PR fixes / content negotiation so NIP-11 relay information is only served when the client explicitly requests application/nostr+json, preventing typical browser Accept headers from receiving JSON.

Changes:

• Replaced accepts-based negotiation with an explicit Accept: application/nostr+json (and q>0) check shared between router middleware and rootRequestHandler.
• Added unit tests for the explicit Accept header detection (including browser-style headers and q=0).
• Added an integration scenario ensuring browser-style Accept headers receive HTML on /.

Ci should pass once #539 is merged

Did you test the fix manually? Also does it work when the relay URL is in a path other than /?

[Justxd22]

@cameri confirmed it breaks under subpath! so We need to edit the html templates remove hardcoded root url and inject settings.info.relay_url to get the sub path
