The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds support for signing Bitcoin messages using keys under a new keypath prefix, m/48', alongside the previously allowed m/45'. It is a feature expansion, not a fix for a security flaw. The change is documented in the changelog and version bump, with no indication of a security issue.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as routine feature release. If reviewing for policy compliance, verify that m/48' is an intentionally supported external-service namespace.
