Jinwoo HongandClaude 24bda717f4 fix(terminal): a slow window no longer makes orca terminal create fail and then duplicate (#28158)
* fix(terminal): start CLI-created workspace terminals in main so a slow window cannot duplicate them

A focused or interactive-agent `orca terminal create` asked the window to make the
terminal and reported failure after 10 s, while the window still made it later; a
retry then made a second one. Main now starts every terminal that names a workspace
and shows it in the window best-effort, as it already did for every other create.

* fix(terminal): start a main-created terminal at its worktree's measured pane size

An unfocused CLI agent opens as an inactive tab that is not resized until the user
opens it, so starting it at 120x40 left its output wrapped to 120 columns. Start it at
the size of the pane active in the worktree's active group, where the new tab opens;
fall back to 120x40 only when that worktree has no measured pane.

* fix(cli): keep sending rendererBacked for hosts before v1.4.211

Hosts without #22384 leave a background-started agent's startup queries unanswered,
so a new CLI talking to an old, still-running host must keep routing interactive agents
to the window. Newer hosts ignore the flag.

* fix(terminal): start host-created terminals at the measured size of their tab group

The window publishes, on its graph sync to main only, the grid an unsplit terminal
would get in each shown tab group, computed by one pure function that mirrors
FitAddon.proposeDimensions and is pinned against it; a ResizeObserver on each group
body republishes when that grid changes. Main starts a new terminal at the size of the
group it opens in (the named group, else the active one) and falls back to 120x40 only
when no window measured it. This replaces the active-pane lookup, which mis-sized split
groups and could read a phone's fitted size.

* fix(terminal): measure group sizes from an untitled default-font pane and use the live active group

A pane with a title or banner pushes its xterm host down, which skewed every group's
row count; skip it like a zoomed pane. Size from the window's latest published active
group, which is where its reveal places the tab, before the saved session's.

* fix(terminal): size a CLI agent in a workspace the window has not shown
