Local Dev 227d013013 Theseus 0.3.98: Namecoin + Handshake adapters
Two more adapters under Settings › Names & Certificates:

Namecoin — .bit names resolve by calling name_show "d/<name>" on the
configured JSON-RPC endpoint and following `translate` or `alias` records
to a clearnet host. Pure IP records aren't followed yet (that needs
in-browser DNS override + TLS pinning, which comes later). Namecoin has
no free public RPC, so the toggle is off by default and the row carries a
"Needs an RPC URL" note instead of a "Not wired yet" one; set yours in
Advanced.

Handshake — non-ICANN hostnames resolve through the public hns.to web
gateway (user-overridable in Advanced). hns.to proxies the request to a
Handshake node and serves the on-chain content. A bundled list of common
ICANN TLDs (original gTLDs + popular new gTLDs + every ccTLD) keeps the
default collision policy ("icann-wins") from hijacking clearnet names.
Setting the policy to "hns-wins" removes that gate.

Both adapters follow the ENS adapter's shape — tryExtraResolvers in main.js
calls each in turn after the BNS lookup; the first one that returns a URL
loads it. Settings copy on both rows updated.
