Sponsored batch send tutorial

[truthixify]

Tier: M (2-4 days) | Type: tutorial

Context. Wraith supports batch send and Stellar supports sponsored reserves. Combining the two so a paymaster covers reserves for many stealth recipients in one transaction is a top-requested pattern for airdrops and payroll, and no page documents it. guides/stellar-fees.mdx explains fee-bump but stops short of sponsored reserves.

Scope.

• New guides/stellar/sponsored-batch-send.mdx.
• Concept: BeginSponsoringFutureReserves + batch send + EndSponsoringFutureReserves.
• Cost model: reserve vs fee, when sponsorship is refunded.
• End-to-end airdrop example (100 stealth recipients).
• Failure modes: sponsor account authorization revocation, insufficient sponsor reserves.

Acceptance.

• Runnable on futurenet
• Renders in mint dev
• Passes Compile docs snippets CI
• Cross-linked with stellar-fees.mdx
• Nav entry under Guides

Files. guides/stellar/sponsored-batch-send.mdx (new), docs.json.

@Mathew2k-hash has applied to work on this issue as part of the Stellar Wave Program's 8th wave.

I'd like to work on this issue because it addresses a highly requested real-world use case and fits my experience with technical documentation. I can create a clear, practical guide covering sponsored reserves, batch stealth sends, cost considerations, and failure scenarios, along with a runnable futurenet example. I'll also ensure the documentation is properly cross-linked, added to navigation, and meets all CI and rendering requirements.
