refactor: migrate spellbook publishing to applesauce action patterns

Refactor PublishSpellbookAction from class-based to async generator pattern
following official applesauce-actions patterns. This provides better integration
with ActionHub and enables proper reactive event publishing.

Changes:
- Add publishEvent function to ActionHub with relay selection fallback strategy
  (outbox relays → seen relays → error)
- Convert PublishSpellbookAction to PublishSpellbook async generator
- Update SaveSpellbookDialog and SpellbooksViewer to use hub.run()
- Add comprehensive test suite (14 tests covering validation, event creation,
  slug generation, factory integration, and workspace selection)
- Improve error handling with specific error messages
- Add JSDoc documentation with usage examples

All tests passing ✅ (14/14)
TypeScript compilation successful ✅
