feat(chats): relocate managed chat worktrees via OPENCHAMBER_CHATS_DIR (#3135)

* feat(chats): relocate managed chat worktrees via OPENCHAMBER_CHATS_DIR

Projectless-chat worktrees were hard-pinned to
<home>/.config/openchamber/chats: the UI joined the path client-side,
workspace checks allowed only the config root, and identification matched
the literal path segment. When the OpenCode server runs as a separate
user (UID-separated setups), that root is unreachable — every chat
session answered HTTP 500 (EACCES on the session directory).

The server now owns the chats root. OPENCHAMBER_CHATS_DIR relocates it
(default unchanged: <config root>/chats); /api/fs/home answers
{ home, chatsRoot }; fs workspace checks accept the managed chats root
next to the config root; the client resolves the root from the server
(per-runtime cached, warmed at bootstrap so sync classification sees it)
and falls back to the home join for older servers.

Refs #3130

* chore: trim added comments to local precedent

* fix: forward managedChatsRoot through feature-routes-runtime to registerFsRoutes

* fix(chats): await the root warm-up and keep the legacy chats root owned

Review feedback on #3135:

- bootstrapGlobal now awaits warmChatsRootDirectory, so synchronous
  session classification never sees an empty root cache (relocated
  sessions were grouped as project sessions when the session list
  outran /api/fs/home).
- managedProjectRoots keeps the legacy <config root>/chats entry next to
  OPENCHAMBER_CHATS_DIR, so memory ownership of existing chats survives
  relocation.

* fix(chats): distinguish chats-root fetch failure from older servers

* fix(sync): rehydrate managed chat sessions after the chats root warms

* fix(fs): pass managed roots through the symlink and git-dirs path checks after the main merge

* docs: drop changelog edits; changelog is the maintainer's release-time work

* fix(chats): keep legacy chat directories deletable while the root is relocated

* fix(chats): resolve roots before cleanup and initial session loads

* test(chats): type runtime spies against actual SDK contracts
