Theseus 0.3.97: ENS adapter — .eth names resolve to IPFS/IPNS

First real resolver behind the Names & Certificates toggles. When the ENS
switch is on, typing a .eth name in the address bar runs:
  1. namehash(name)                  (EIP-137 keccak256 recursion)
  2. eth_call  resolver(bytes32)     on the ENS registry
  3. eth_call  contenthash(bytes32)  on the returned resolver address
  4. decode EIP-1577 (varint protocol + CID) → ipfs|ipns|swarm
  5. navigate to <gateway>/ipfs/<cid> (or /ipns/<cid>)

The adapter lives in lib/resolvers/ens.cjs; main.js's navigateTab calls it
through tryExtraResolvers after the BNS check and before the clearnet
fallback. Defaults: publicnode's free Ethereum RPC (Cloudflare's eth-RPC
returns "Internal error" for ENS calls in testing) and ipfs.io as the
gateway (Cloudflare retired their IPFS gateway in 2024). Both are
user-overridable in Settings › Names & Certificates › Advanced.

CIDv0 (Qm… base58) and CIDv1 (bafy… base32) both encode; swarm names
cache a "not yet supported" negative result for one minute until we add a
swarm gateway option. Positive answers cache for 10 min, negatives for 1 min.

// ENS resolver — turns a .eth hostname into an HTTP gateway URL by reading
// EIP-137 (namehash) and EIP-1577 (contenthash) from an Ethereum JSON-RPC
// endpoint. Used by main.js's navigateTab when the user types a .eth name
// AND the Names & Certificates toggle for ENS is on.
//
// Flow:
// 1. namehash(name) (EIP-137)
// 2. resolver(bytes32 node) on ENS registry → address of the resolver
// 3. contenthash(bytes32 node) on that resolver → bytes (EIP-1577)
// 4. decode: <varint protocol><cid> → ipfs | ipns | swarm → gateway URL
//
// Negative/positive answers cache for 10 min to avoid hammering the RPC on
// retries; the cache clears when Theseus restarts (no on-disk cache).
