Adds an Erlay topic page to the topics section. The page describes the bandwidth-efficient transaction relay protocol that replaces flooding with set reconciliation using minisketch.

  • Adds data/topics/erlay.mdx covering the two-stage relay design, set reconciliation, and the resulting resistance to eclipse attacks
  • References BIP 330, the Naumenko et al. Erlay paper, bitcoin-core/minisketch, and Bitcoin Optech

Closes https://github.com/OpenSats/content/issues/52

If helpful, Erlay is currently being debated and its viability and future are in question. See bitcoin/bitcoin#34542.

Match the label to the bitcoin-core/minisketch repository and
inline-link the minisketch mention in the body for easier reference.
