fix: bound keyurl caches with FIFO eviction to prevent memory leak

Replace unbounded Record/Map caches in networkV1.ts and
AbstractRelayerProvider.ts with Map<string, CachedKey> bounded to
MAX_KEYURL_CACHE_SIZE=16 entries. FIFO eviction via Map insertion order
prevents indefinite growth in long-running server processes.

Closes zama-ai#336
