NIP-71: Add addressable video events (kinds 34235, 34236)

Extends NIP-71 to support addressable video events for content that may need updates after publication. This enables:

- Metadata corrections without republishing
- URL migration when hosting changes
- Preservation of imported content IDs from legacy platforms
- Platform migration tracking

Adds kinds 34235 (normal videos) and 34236 (short videos) with required 'd' tag for unique identification and optional 'origin' tag for tracking imported content.

+## Addressable Video Events
+
+For content that may need updates after publication (such as correcting metadata, descriptions, or handling URL migrations), addressable versions are available:
+
+- Kind `34235` for _addressable normal videos_
+- Kind `34236` for _addressable short videos_
+
+These addressable events follow the same format as their regular counterparts but include a `d` tag as a unique identifier and can be updated while maintaining the same addressable reference. This is particularly useful for:
+
+- Metadata corrections (descriptions, titles, tags) without republishing
+- Preservation of imported content IDs from legacy platforms
+- URL migration when hosting changes
+- Platform migration tracking
+
 The `.content` of these events is a summary or description on the video content.
