feat: expand confirm-tx warnings — closes #114 (#118)
All checks were successful
check / check (push) Successful in 5s

Expands the confirm-tx warning system with three new warning types, all using the existing `visibility:hidden/visible` pattern from PR #98 (no animations, no layout shift).

## Changes

1. **Scam address list expanded** (7 → 652 addresses): Sourced from [MyEtherWallet/ethereum-lists](https://github.com/MyEtherWallet/ethereum-lists) darklist (MIT license). Checked synchronously before sending.

2. **Contract address warning**: When the recipient is a smart contract (detected via `getCode`), shows a warning that sending directly to a contract may result in permanent loss of funds.

3. **Null/burn address warning**: Detects known burn addresses (`0x0000...0000`, `0x...dead`, `0x...deadbeef`) and warns that funds are permanently destroyed.

4. **No-history warning** (existing from #98): Unchanged, still shows for EOAs with zero transaction history.

All warnings use reserved-space `visibility:hidden/visible` elements — no layout shift, no animations.

closes #114
