nostr-tools NIP-47 parser now accepts multiple relays
nostr-tools PR #529 was closed, updating `parseConnectionString` for NIP-47 connection strings to parse multiple `relay` parameters into a new `relays` field while keeping the original `relay` field for backward compatibility.
Mechanically, this lets Nostr Wallet Connect clients express more than one relay in the connection string, improving relay flexibility and reducing dependence on a single relay endpoint without breaking existing consumers of `relay`.
Caveat from the reasoning chain: multiple relay support also shifts more connection-management complexity to clients, with possible resource overhead; if implementations converge on a few relay clusters, the redundancy goal can still turn into concentration.
