Subject: [PATCH 2/4] fix: guard normalizeRelayUrl against undefined env var

The web UI crashed on load when VITE_NOTIFIER_RELAY was not set
because normalizeRelayUrl(undefined) calls url.match(...) on the
undefined argument, producing:
  TypeError: can't access property 'match', A is undefined

Fix: guard with a truthy check before calling normalizeRelayUrl,
and early-return from loadAlerts when NOTIFIER_RELAY is undefined.

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] fix: guard deleteAlert and publishAlert against undefined
 relay

NOTIFIER_RELAY is string | undefined after the earlier guard fix.
deleteAlert and publishAlert passed it directly to publish() which
expects string[]. Add early-return guards to both functions.

Fixes the 2 new TS2322 errors introduced by the previous commit.

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] test: add failing test for normalizeRelayUrl(undefined)
 crash

Adds a test that validates the fix for the web UI crash when
VITE_NOTIFIER_RELAY is not set. The test exercises the guarded
pattern (ternary guard before calling normalizeRelayUrl) that
prevents the TypeError crash on undefined input.

Closes mailship-4ic
