fix(carousel): remove hasSubtitle proto field + add debug logging

- Remove hasSubtitle (field 10) from Header proto definition, index.js
  and index.d.ts - this field was adding extra bytes to encoded protobuf
  that working implementations don't send, potentially causing rejection
- Remove hasSubtitle from carousel card headers and root header
- Add [CAROUSEL DEBUG] logging in relayMessage to dump:
  - Encoded message bytes as base64 (for binary comparison)
  - Message structure as JSON
  - Per-device encoded bytes with DSM flag
- This enables byte-level comparison with working implementations
