Subject: [PATCH] fix: Actively fetch own inbox relays for self-chat in NIP-17

Previously, self-chat relied on giftWrapService.inboxRelays$.value being
populated, but if empty, self-chat would show 0 relays and fail to send
messages. This fix actively fetches own inbox relays using
fetchInboxRelays(activePubkey) for self-chat, ensuring inbox relays are
always populated and self-chat works correctly.

Changes:
- Detect self-chat and actively fetch own inbox relays
- For non-self-chat, use cached value first (optimization)
- Store fetched relays in userInboxRelays variable for metadata
- Add logging for self-chat relay fetch status
