Stop and send buttons on the chat dictation bar (#7683)

* feat(studio): stop and send buttons on the dictation bar

Replace the check/cross pair in the chat recording bar with a stop
button and the normal send button.

- Stop ends the recording and leaves the transcript in the composer
- Send transcribes and submits the message in one action
- Escape discards a recording without transcribing

* fix(studio): grey stop button and roomier dictation bar spacing

- Neutral grey in both themes; --secondary read as brand green on light
  and blended into --card on dark
- Wider gap between stop and send, more padding around the waveform

* fix(studio): skip dictation Escape when a dialog claimed it

Drops preventDefault and bails on defaultPrevented so Escape closing an
open overlay no longer also cancels the recording.

* fix(studio): rebalance dictation bar spacing

Tighten the gap between the waveform and the timer, and push the timer
further from the stop button.

* fix(studio): tighten recording buttons, enlarge dictate icon

* fix(studio): nudge dictate icon up to 24px

* fix(studio): back dictate icon down to 23px

* revert(studio): keep dictate icon at 20px

* fix(studio): nudge dictate icon to 21px

* fix(studio): set dictate icon to 22px

* fix(studio): address review on dictation send

- Empty transcript no longer submits a pre-recording draft; the send
  compares against the text at session start, so a final result matching
  the browser engine's interim still counts as new
- Disable dictation send while an attachment uploads, matching the
  regular send, which handleSubmit would otherwise reject silently
- Cover the send decision with unit tests

* fix(studio): enlarge composer mic and send controls, tuck send into the corner

The mic and send arrow are filled glyphs that span their whole viewBox, so
at the shared --ui-icon-size they read smaller than the stroked icons beside
them. Both now opt out of that size and stay slightly above it, still
tracking the UI font scale.

Send, queue, cancel and dictation stop circles go from 32px to 36px, matching
the plus button, and the send circle now sits 10px from the right and bottom
edges so it tucks evenly into the composer's 32px corner. Compare gets the
same treatment.

Also drops two comments describing the discard button this branch removed.

* fix(studio): give the send circle a 12px corner gap

Gemini-style breathing room rather than the tighter tuck: the circle sits
12px from the right and bottom edges in both composers, still even on both
axes inside the 32px corner.

* fix(studio): restore the composer plus to its pre-#7400 size

#7400 folded every glyph with a 16px or larger base into --ui-icon-size,
which took the composer plus from 22px down to 16px at the default UI font
size. It now renders at 1.375x the token, which is the same curve a 22px
base follows, so the size is back where it was and only its scaling changed.

* fix(studio): round the icon button hovers and tidy temporary chat

Hover backgrounds on the sidebar search and collapse buttons and on the
chat header's temporary chat, research and run settings buttons are now
circles. The sidebar pair squares off at 28px, its previous width, so the
spacing between them does not move.

The header group also loses 4px of gap: gap-1 plus the 2px nudge that
pushed the run settings button right, leaving 4px between the circles.

Temporary chat drops two redundant markers: the greeting mascot, so the
title stands alone, and the green Temporary pill, since the header toggle
already turns green and the welcome copy explains the mode.

* fix(studio): tighten the dictation send gate and skip partial transcripts

Send was only gated on disabled and pending attachments, so it stayed live
in states handleSubmit rejects: an active research run, and a running
response or prompt queue holding an attachment, pending audio or an image
overlay. The intent was already spent by then, so the click quietly acted
as stop. It now covers each of those, leaving out the text check since the
transcript supplies it.

Both engines can also end holding a partial transcript, the browser one
through a recognition error and the local model one when a segment fails
to transcribe. That text still belongs in the composer, but send no longer
fires on it. The adapters flag the failure and the recording bar reads it
after the session is gone.

* fix(studio): scope the dictation send to its own thread and outcome

The composer is reused across thread switches, so a send pressed in one
thread could land after a move to another and submit that thread's draft.
The pending send now records the composer it started in and drops the
intent when it no longer matches.

The failure flag moves off reportTranscriptionError, which is also the
catch for the speculative model preload: that can fail transiently without
costing any audio, and a complete transcript would then refuse to send.
Only a lost segment marks the outcome partial now.

Escape stays live while transcribing. Cancel aborts the in-flight request
and both buttons are disabled, so it is the only way out of a stalled one.

* fix(studio): key the pending dictation send on the thread list item

referenceThreadId moves from null to the remote id when a new chat first
persists, so the composite identity changed under the same composer and
dropped a perfectly good send. The thread list item id does not move: the
adapter initializes with the id the runtime passes in and returns it as the
remote id, so both sides are the same string.

* fix(studio): keep the branch chevrons on size-[36px]

Renaming the send circles to size-9 also caught the two branch picker
chevrons, which are glyphs, not buttons. index.css scales svg.size-[36px]
through the 36px curve and has no size-9 selector, so they froze at 36px
while the counter beside them kept tracking the UI font size. Measured
against the built stylesheet: at scale 1.25 the class renders 40.5px and
size-9 renders 36px, at 0.75 it is 27px against the same 36px.

Every other size-9 on this branch is a button, which the glyph rules do
not touch.

* fix(studio): gate the dictation send on a published transcript

Comparing composer text could not tell speech from an edit: the plus menu
stays open while recording, so inserting a saved prompt looked like dictated
text and a silent recording would submit it.

Both engines publish exactly one final transcript, each behind a guard, so
they now record that directly and the send requires it. The text comparison
stays as well, so a transcript that never reached this composer still cannot
send the draft that was already there.

* fix(studio): hold the dictation send while an upload finishes

The plus stays live during transcription, so an attachment started after
send was pressed made handleSubmit reject a submit whose intent was already
spent. The intent is now kept until the upload lands, and the effect reruns
on it, so the message sends by itself.

Session start is tracked explicitly with that dependency added: the base
text is captured once per recording rather than on every rerun, and a new
recording clears a send still held for an upload rather than firing it on
the next stop.

* fix(studio): one gate for the dictation send, and a cancel touch can reach

The button gate and the pending send disagreed: an attachment added after
the press could finish uploading before transcription, clearing the hold
while leaving content that cannot be queued, so the submit bounced and the
intent was gone. Both now read one predicate, dictationSendBlocked, and a
pending send waits on it rather than being spent. Nothing-to-send is settled
first, so a silent or cancelled recording never leaves an intent pending.

Stop also discards on a second press once transcription starts, which is
what Compare's dictation button already does. Escape was otherwise the only
way to abort a stalled request, and touch has no way to press it.

* fix(studio): drop a held dictation send when the composer is edited

The recording bar is gone while a send waits on a block, so the hold has no
indicator and no cancel. Replacing the transcript with another draft still
satisfied the base-text comparison, so clearing the block sent that draft.

The hold now lasts only as long as the transcript it was pressed for: the
text is recorded when the send is first held, and any edit releases it.

* fix(studio): read the reactive composer text in the dictation send effect

The effect reruns on composerText to notice edits, so it should read that
rather than a fresh getState of the same value. Also clears the lint error
the extra dependency raised.
