fix(security): validate avatar-decoration slugs from remote profiles
CI / Build & Quality Checks (push) Successful in 1m33s
CI / Trigger Desktop Build (push) Successful in 21s

The MSC4133 io.lotus.avatar_decoration value was interpolated into the
CDN URL verbatim, letting a room member steer the path/query of a request
every viewer's browser makes. Accept only slugs present in the catalog;
anything else is treated as no decoration. Unit-tested.

Fixes #64
