fix: refresh provider cache from live config

OpenChamber could show stale providers in Settings after users changed opencode.json because provider lists were restored from the persisted config-store cache. OpenCode itself was already correct, but the UI could keep showing old providers across app or machine restarts.

Stop persisting provider lists/defaults, strip old persisted provider snapshots during hydration, and invalidate provider cache before startup/config reload fetches. Provider config changes now refresh all known project directories immediately with capped concurrency, so switching projects later uses fresh cached data instead of triggering a refetch on navigation.

Also validate the selected provider/model after every provider reload, fall back to a live valid model when the old one was removed, and preserve a still-valid current model variant. Add regression coverage for hydration stripping, multi-directory provider refresh, and variant preservation.
