New Release! Routstr Core v0.4.4: Reliable Billing & Robust Streaming

Major Changes:

- **More Accurate Cache Pricing:** Cached input tokens are now billed at their real, per-vendor rates across direct upstreams (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, and more) instead of a flat guess. Cache prices are configurable, so operators can tune them per model.

- **Reliable Mint Swaps:** Foreign-mint swaps now retry using the fees the mint actually charges instead of trusting a stale `fee_reserve`, and the NUT-02 input fee is deducted when crediting trusted-mint top-ups.

- **Robust Streaming for All Providers:** A new buffer-based SSE parser handles streamed responses for every supported provider

- **Lightning Invoice Top-ups (RIP-08):** You can now create and top up API keys directly with a Lightning invoice.

- **Hardened Child Keys:** Child key balance deduction.

Plus better rate-limit forwarding, smarter OpenRouter defaults (routes to a tool-use-capable provider), harder-to-abuse admin endpoints, and many smaller fixes.

Huge thanks to everyone who shipped this release - with a special welcome to our first-time contributors.
